This report, submitted to the court came in response to a plea from the accused's father, who asserted that Seth was suffering from mental illness. He urged the police to assess her mental health.

As part of an ongoing divorce proceeding, the father had been restricted from meeting his son, and a restraining order granted on August 18, 2022, prevented the spouse from entering Suchana Seth's home or contacting the child through any means.

Suchana Seth was arrested on January 8 while en route to Bengaluru from Goa. Following her arrest, a Goa court sent her to six-day police custody. The case involves a detailed investigation into the chilling murder of her four-year-old son.
