Indian man in US forgets about mom for a year, returns home to find her skeleton
- The woman was extremely lonely and had requested her son to get her into an old-age home.
- The son last spoke to her on April 2016 and then did not call her for a year.
- He came back to his mother a year later, only to find that she was dead weeks ago.
FollowIn a bone-chilling incident where a son forgot his mother for a year, but then came back to meet her from the US to Mumbai, just to find her skeleton inside the house. The 63-year old woman was found in an extremely decomposed state in her 10th floor flat of Belscot Tower in Lokhandwala on Sunday afternoon. The deceased Aasha Sahani was living alone and was reportedly depressed after the death of her husband in 2013. She had also requested her son to find her a place in an old-age home.
Police informed that the Sahani's only son Ruturaj was a software engineer and was residing in the US and the last time he spoke to her was on April 2016. A year later, on Sunday when he returned home, he found that no one was responding to his knocks at 4:30 pm. He entered the house with the help of a keymaker as the door was locked from inside. He was utterly shocked to find his mother's decomposed body in the bedroom.
From the level of decomposition, police analysed that the woman was dead a few weeks back. However, it is yet to be deciphered as to why the neighbours never reported of any foul smell emanating from the flat. An officer from the Oshiwara police station, Mumbai, said, "The body was then sent to Siddhartha hospital after the inquest."
The police further added, "We have filed an accidental death report and the body has been sent for the postmortem. Sahani had two attached flats on 10th floor. It is shocking that no one came across the foul smell or questioned her absence." the police is not suspecting any foulplay at the moment as the door was locked from India. The body has been sent for postmortem. Paramjit Singh Dahiya, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Zone 9 said, "Our probe is on to ascertain the cause of death and how no one realised it."
