Preliminary findings suggest the baby had drowned in the bucket,” said deputy commissioner of police N Yetish.Police said the woman was in shock and blamed herself for the incident.

I could not save him, and I cannot live with this guilt.”The incident came to light around 7pm when the woman’s husband returned from work.“When I returned home from work in the evening and knocked on the door, the door did not open. I called my wife, but there was no response. Somehow, I took the key from the inside of the window and opened the door. When I went inside, I found my wife dead. The body of our son was lying on the bed,” the husband said.Police said the bodies were sent for post-mortem examination and later handed over to the family.
