Kerala: Mother charged with murder for killing newborn

Kochi police have registered a murder case against 23-year-old woman for flinging her newborn out of the fifth floor to death.
In what can be termed as gruesome incident, the 23-year-old woman packed the newborn in a courier cover and threw it on the road from her fifth floor apartment on Friday morning.
What is more shocking is that the woman stuffed cloth in the infant’s mouth and strangulated the newborn before throwing out on the road.
The police have now registered a case of murder against the woman, who is presently under medical attention.
While the woman admitted to flinging her child to the road after delivering the baby in her bathroom, her parents said they had no clue as to what happened to their daughter.
The Kochi City Police Commissioner told the media on Friday that a detailed probe will reveal if the woman was a rape victim.
