BENGALURU: Chilling details have surfaced in the shocking murder case involving Bengaluru’s startup magnate, Suchana Seth, accused of brutally killing her four-year-old son in North Goa’s Candolim. According to media reports, Seth embarked on a trip to Goa with her child just a week before the alleged murder, residing in a lavish five-star hotel for a five-day sojourn. Seth reportedly arrived in Goa on December 31, 2023, on New Year’s Eve, and stayed till January 4, setting the stage for the tragic events that followed.
Arrest In Chitradurga
The Karnataka Police apprehended Suchana Seth on Tuesday, disclosing that she was captured in Chitradurga district while attempting to flee in a cab, her son’s lifeless body concealed in a bag. Upon checkout, she requested a hotel staff for a taxi to Bengaluru. The hotel staff, who went to clean the room, discovered red stains, presumed to be blood. The staff then immediately informed the police, according to Nidhin Valsan, Superintendent of Police, North Goa.
