Bengaluru Woman and Partner Accused in Death of Five-Year-Old DaughterPreviousNext

In Bengaluru, a murder case has been registered against Priyanka and her live-in partner Mohan following the death of her five-year-old daughter, Vennila, on March 24. The child's father, Praveen, filed the complaint nearly three months later after noticing inconsistencies in Priyanka's accounts of the death. A post-mortem report reviewed by a doctor relative abroad raised suspicions of unnatural causes. Priyanka had reconnected with Mohan and moved in with him and Vennila prior to the incident.
