Greater Noida: Gautam Buddh Nagar police have arrested a 25-year-old woman for allegedly killing her 8-month-old son who was missing from last 10 days. Cops said that the accused decomposed the body at granary at her house in Gopalgarh village in Jewar. According to police, the accused has been identified as Hema and she has been living with her husband Rohtash and two sons. "Hema is a housewife while her husband works as driver in a private company in Greater Noida," said police. The accused woman and her husband had also filed a missing complaint of their child on August 11. Kumar Ranvijay Singh, Superintendent of Police (rural), Gautam Buddh Nagar said that Rohtash returned home at night and found his wife was crying. "She told him that someone had kidnapped their son when she had gone outside to feed the animals," said Singh. "On Wednesday morning around 8.30 am, Rohtash and his family members felt a foul smell coming from granary and when they opened the gate, they found the body of the infant. Police started the investigation from home and interrogated each member of the family separately. However, Hemas statement were not found correct and she also kept on changing her statement," added Singh. "During interrogation, she broke down and revealed that the infant had fallen from the cot while playing and died. She had stuffed the boy in a bag and put it in the granary, fearing the family members would scold her for negligence. Prima Facie it appears that the woman is having an illicit affair with her brother-in-law and was jealous of his wife. It is being suspected that she allegedly wanted to frame her sister-in-law in the whole incident. However, we are investigating the case from all angles," Singh said.
