💨 Abstract

Poonam, a 32-year-old woman from Bhavad village, is accused of murdering four children, including her own son, between 2023 and 2025. She allegedly staged their deaths as accidental drownings, driven by jealousy and a desire to eliminate children she deemed more beautiful or loved. Poonam's shifting accounts and lack of diagnosable mental illness complicate the case, raising questions about motive and societal pressures.
