A 25-year-old woman allegedly jumped into a well with her two minor children in Maharashtra's Latur district following a family dispute, leading to their deaths, police said.

The incident occurred at Kharosa village in Ausa tehsil around Sunday midnight.

 

Details of the Incident

The woman, identified as Nikita Amardeep Bhure, along with her children Shivani (5) and Shivansh (3), jumped into a well located adjacent to their residence, police inspector Dr Vishal Shahane told PTI.

Some villagers spotted the woman's body floating in the well on Monday morning.

Upon receiving information, Killari police personnel rushed to the spot and the three bodies were later fished out, the official said.

The police have launched an investigation into the incident, he added.

Indian law treats suicide as a complex issue, often involving investigations into potential abetment or underlying mental health concerns. The police will likely investigate the family dispute to determine if it contributed to the woman's actions. Such incidents highlight the need for accessible mental health support in rural areas.
