India, Jan. 19 -- In a harrowing case from Madhya Pradesh, a Gwalior woman has been sentenced to life imprisonment for killing her son after he saw her with her extramarital partner.

The accused, Jyoti Rathore, wife of police constable Dhyan Singh Rathore, was allegedly involved in an extramarital affair with her neighbour Uday Indolia, an NDTV report said.

The incident happened in April 2023, when the five-year-old son saw his mother in a compromising position with Uday. Fearing that he would reveal the relationship, the woman took the extreme step of throwing her son from the two-storey roof of a building. The boy died soon after the incident.

After killing the son, Jyoti said that the boy suffered a fall from the rooftop by accident...
