Bengaluru: Unaware of mother’s death, 14-yo spends two days with body at home

Bengaluru: A teenage boy spent two days with his dead mother’s body in RT Nagar locality of Bengaluru.

According to police, the boy did not know that his mother was dead. The boy thought his mother was asleep and not speaking to him because she was angry at him.

Police said that 44-year-old Annamma died in her residence because of low sugar and blood pressure on February 26. As she died while sleeping, the boy thought that his mother was sleeping.

Annamma’s husband died of kidney failure a year ago. Only mother and boy lived in the house. The boy used to come out of the house, play with his friends outside and go back home. He used to have food at his friend’s place.

The boy did this routine for two days and on February 28 he told his father’s friends about Annamma not talking to him for two days. Sensing danger, they visited and found out that she was dead. RT Nagar police have taken up the case and are investigating.
