Three Parents in Gujarat Arrested for Killing Their Own Children

Three incidents in Gujarat have brought the state to a state of shock, as parents were arrested for killing their own children. In each case, the victims were minors, and the killings were carried out by their mothers or fathers. Police investigations have highlighted two main motives: psychiatric disorders and revenge. In one case, a mother suffering from a diagnosed mental illness allegedly strangled her child, while in another, a father allegedly killed his son in retaliation for a perceived slight. The Gujarat Police have launched a comprehensive inquiry, collecting forensic evidence and interviewing witnesses. The incidents have prompted a statewide review of child protection protocols and mental health support for families.
