Woman kills parents and child for this shocking reason!!!

Is a mother able to harm her only child? And what of her parents- can she actually raise such heinous thoughts against them?

A woman was arrested in Kannur, Kerala on Tuesday night for allegedly killing her parents and her nine-year-old daughter, by poisoning them in small doses over several months. 

According to the police, 28-year-old Soumya was suspected in the suspicious deaths of her father, mother, and her daughter. They questioned the woman for 13 hours on Tuesday, following which she confessed to killing her family, the police said.

Soumya was taken for questioning when she was convalescing at a state-run hospital near Kannur after being admitted for nausea and indigestion – incidentally, the same symptoms that her parents and her daughter suffered from before they died.

Her family mysteriously died over a period of four months: On January 31, her daughter Aishwarya died, her mother V Kamala (68) died on March 7, and on April 13, her father Kunhikannan (76) passed away. All of them reportedly had the same symptoms. They were all residents of Padannakkara in Pinarayi. 

Following the deaths, a relative who suspected foul play filed a complaint, and the body of the child was exhumed after rat poison was found in the viscera of her parents. 

A post-mortem on the child’s body was carried out by Pariyaram medical college hospital forensic surgeon Dr. Gopalakrishna Pillai and the remains were taken to Thiruvananthapuram forensic lab for detailed examination.

“We have recorded the arrest of Soumya after she confessed to the killings. But we are not able to tell her motive,” said district police chief Siva Vikram G.

Soumya was taken into custody from the Cooperative Hospital in Thalassery and she would be interrogated further, said police sources. 

Incidentally, this happened in the home village of Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and it was only after his intervention that the police sped up their investigation.

The woman was separated from her husband and according to police; her motive was that her parents and child were “impediments to her wayward life”.
