A 22-year-old pregnant woman and her two-year-old son were tragically found murdered in Rajasthan's Rajsamand district. Police recovered the woman's body from a pond on Thursday morning, February 20, 2026. A search is currently ongoing for the child's body in a nearby forest.
The accused, identified as Govind Singh, has been arrested. He reportedly confessed to strangling the nine-month pregnant victim, Priyanka Rawat, and her son, Aryan. The investigation began after the family reported the two missing on February 12, 2026, leading police to analyze call records that pointed to Singh.
Singh, a driver known to the victim, allegedly admitted to dumping the woman's body in Bhim ka Talab after weighing it down with stones. He then killed the child and disposed of his body in the forests near Darra. Preliminary findings indicate strangulation as the cause of death.
