Meanwhile, the woman and the child moved to his parents’ house after the birth of a child.
The police said that the child died on Friday night.
Even though Sakshi was told, he did not visit the house.
While the mother and grandparents buried the body, she approached the police looking for an investigation.
A police officer said that Post Mortem was carried out on Saturday but no external injury was found.
Visceral samples have been sent to the laboratory, he said.
