Overview
- The 37-year-old woman fell from the sixth floor of her Lakshmi Prestige apartment in Mayuri Nagar while holding her six-month-old daughter, and was pronounced dead at the scene.
- Police registered a case and moved the body for post-mortem as they collect medical records and statements to determine exactly what happened.
- The infant survived with minor injuries after landing on protective fence/solar-fence cables, was rescued by residents and a watchman, and was taken to Lotus Hospital where doctors say she is out of danger.
- Multiple police sources say the mother had suffered months of severe insomnia, anxiety and symptoms of postpartum depression, but authorities have not issued a conclusive finding on motive or intent.
- Some outlets report a purported suicide note, but that detail is not widely corroborated and investigators have appealed for restraint while the probe continues.
