India Dec 04, 2025

A 32-year-old woman from Panipat, Haryana, has been arrested after police connected her to the deaths of four young children—including her own son—over the past two years.
The kids' deaths were first thought to be accidental drownings across different family homes, but a closer look revealed a troubling pattern that left her family and relatives in shock.

What raised suspicions and what happens next

Family members started noticing odd behavior from Poonam, like showing up in wet clothes and giving mixed-up stories.
Police are also looking into claims she was involved with a tantrik and reports of alleged possession.
Poonam was taken into custody on December 3, and investigators are now trying to understand her motives.
