A 33-year-old woman and her 11-year-old son were found murdered at their house in Ravindranagar in T. Dasarahalli on Tuesday.
The decease have been identified as Navanita, a call centre employee and her son Sai Srujan. The duo were found dead on the bed. The police said while Navanita had a stab injury on her neck and was holding a knife in her right hand, Sai Srujan was frothing and is suspected to have choked to death.
The murder came to light when neighbours noticed gas leaking from the house and tried to call Navanita, but there was no response. They later called the Navanita’s mother, who asked her son to visit the house. By then, the neighbours broke open the window to find the duo lying dead on the bed.
