127

Gurgaon: Due to extreme fear of contracting coronavirus infection, a woman locked herself and her son in their house in Maruti Kunj for three years.

However, they were brought out of confinement on Tuesday by a team of police, health officials and members of the child welfare department after breaking open the main door.

The woman has been identified as Mumum Majhi, who feared stepping out of her home and also ensured her 10-year-old son from not getting exposed to the outside world.

Sujan remained in contact with his family through a video call. He would pay their monthly rent, and his son’s school fees, buy groceries and vegetables and leave it on the main door. After repeated failed attempts to convince his wife to allow his entry into their home, Sujan contacted the police.

On Tuesday, officials who learned about the case broke open the door to release Mumum and the child.
