Woman spends three days with daughter’s decomposed body

June 1, 2022

Mandya: A mentally disturbed woman, spent three days with her daughter’s body at her house in Tamil Colony at Halahalli. Neighbours who went to the house as foul smell was emanating from it, saw the woman’s daughter dead and the body had decomposed.

The deceased woman is Roopa (31), who is said to have died about three days back and her mother is Nagamma.

Details: Roopa, who was working as a Home Guard was married to a man from Pandavapura and the couple had two children. After she got separated from her husband about five years ago, she was residing with her mother Nagamma at a house in Tamil Colony at Halahalli.

Roopa had quit work about a year back and according to the neighbours Roopa and Nagamma used to fight frequently but since three days, there was no commotion and the house was silent, which gave rise to doubts but the neighbours had thought that Roopa may have gone out of station.

But on Monday morning, the neighbours observed foul smell emanating from Roopa’s house and thought that a rat or an animal may have died. But as the foul smell grew more in the evening, the neighbours went into the house only to find Roopa dead. When the neighbours questioned Nagamma about it, she was unable to tell anything, following which the neighbours informed the Police.

Mandya East Police, who rushed to the house, conducted mahazar, registered a case of unnatural death and shifted the body to the mortuary, where post-mortem was conducted. The cause for Roopa’s death would be known only after receiving the post-mortem report.

Preliminary investigation has revealed that Nagamma had not come out of the house even after her daughter’s death about three to four days back. Superintendent of Police Yatish said that he has no information about the mental condition of Nagamma and added that information about Roopa and Nagamma will be collected and Nagamma will be subjected to interrogation.
