Perne Child Case Takes New Turn as Police Examine Family Circumstances

A case involving two young children in Perne, Dakshina Kannada, has drawn fresh attention after details about the accused woman’s behaviour before the incident emerged during the investigation. Police have arrested 28 year old Noorunissa in connection with the incident, which occurred on September 19.

According to police, Noorunissa allegedly pushed her own young daughter and her sister in law’s young son into a well near the family home. The boy, identified in reports as Mohammed Rabih, died, while her daughter Aliya survived and was taken to hospital for treatment. Police have registered a case under Sections 103 and 109 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.

The latest development has focused attention on Noorunissa’s behaviour during the period before the incident. Family members have reportedly said that she had spoken to her husband Sinan about feeling frightened, anxious and alone. At the same time, relatives said she continued to behave normally and remained close to members of the family.

This difference in her reported behaviour has raised questions within the family about what may have happened in the days leading up to the incident. However, the reported feelings of fear or anxiety do not by themselves establish any medical condition, and the exact circumstances remain part of the police investigation.

Noorunissa and Sinan had been married for about five years and were living with their children and other family members. Police reports said the couple had two children, including a very young infant. Family members and local residents described their relationship as generally normal before the incident.

The incident reportedly followed a disagreement between Noorunissa and her husband during a phone conversation. Police said the couple had a marital dispute on the afternoon of September 19. Investigators later concluded that the incident was not accidental, according to reports.

At the time, Noorunissa was reportedly at home with her sister in law while other relatives were away. The two children were later taken for medical treatment after the incident. The boy died, while Aliya survived and was reported to be in stable condition.

The investigation also changed the initial understanding of what had happened. Police initially considered the possibility that the children had accidentally fallen into the well. Further inquiry, however, led investigators to conclude that they had allegedly been pushed into it.

A complaint was filed by Noorunissa’s father in law, according to police reports. The complaint reportedly mentioned that she had complained of frequent headaches following the birth of her second child and that disagreements had occurred between her and her husband. These details are part of the police case and do not independently establish the reason for her actions.

Another important question for investigators is what happened immediately before the incident. Police have linked the episode to the reported phone dispute between the couple, but the complete circumstances and any other contributing factors will have to be established through the investigation.

The reported change in Noorunissa’s behaviour has also become an important part of the discussion within the family. Relatives have said that she had appeared worried in the days before the incident but continued to interact normally with people around her.

Police are now expected to examine the sequence of events, statements from family members and other available evidence to establish what led to the incident. The precise reason behind the alleged act has not been fully established in the information publicly available so far.

For the family involved, the incident has left difficult questions about what may have been happening inside the household before September 19. The reported concerns about Noorunissa’s behaviour have added another layer to the investigation, but they should not be treated as a confirmed explanation until investigators establish the facts.

The case remains under investigation, and allegations against Noorunissa have yet to be tested through the legal process. The police findings and subsequent court proceedings will determine how the case develops and what evidence is ultimately established.
