Sullia: Woman, three-year-old child found dead under mysterious circumstances in lake
Mangaluru: A woman and her three-year-old child were found dead under mysterious circumstances in a lake near their residence at Kodial village under Bellare police station limits, on Sunday.
The deceased have been identified as Madhusree (34), the wife of Arwara Harish of Kodial village in Sullia taluk, and their three-year-old child Dhanvi.
According to police, Harish lived with his parents, wife, and child at their Arwara residence.
On Sunday morning, when Madhusree and the child, who had gone to sleep on Saturday night, were found missing, family members began searching for them. Their bodies were later discovered in a lake located on private land close to their house.
It has been alleged that Madhusree may have tied the child to her waist with a cloth before jumping into the lake, allegedly committing suicide.
Madhusree was a native of Betageri in Puttur taluk and had married Harish four years ago. Bellare police visited the spot, conducted a preliminary investigation, and registered a case.
