The boyfriend was in the bedroom when a strange sound came from under the bed... When the drawer was opened, a horrifying secret of 3 years was revealed

The court has sentenced this cruel woman to seven and a half years of imprisonment. The woman kept her child in a drawer under the bed for almost three years. The child never saw the light of the day. The child became malnourished and was surrounded by many other health problems.

An innocent child, who was imprisoned in a drawer just 2-3 feet wide as soon as he was born. He never saw sunlight nor breathed in the open air. He never got any birthday gifts. No one ever took him in their arms and fed him. Time passed and he remained in this condition for three years. The reason for his condition was none other than his mother herself. The court has now sentenced this cruel mother to seven and a half years in jail. What was this whole story?

The case is of February 2023. The woman had separated from her husband and lived with the children at home. She did not say anything about this newborn baby to her other children. Her crime was exposed when this woman's boyfriend came to her house early in the morning to meet her. Both of them talked for some time and after this, they made a plan to go out.

The boyfriend revealed the truth

Both of them had just left the house when the woman's boyfriend returned to use the toilet. During this time, the woman stood outside the house. When her boyfriend went to the bedroom to use the toilet, he heard the sound of a child crying. This sound was coming from the drawer under the bed. As soon as he opened the drawer, he was shocked. An innocent child was lying in the drawer in a bad condition.

However, the woman's boyfriend did not say anything to her about this and went home and told the whole thing to his family. After this, the police were informed about the case and this woman was arrested. Here, when the police took her child out of the drawer, his condition was found to be very serious. The child's hair was tangled, there were many deformities in the body and there were rashes too.

No one except Mother had seen the face

When the woman was asked if she always kept her child locked in this drawer, she replied yes very rudely. She did not show any kind of emotion towards her child. Her expressions were as if nothing had happened. During interrogation, it was also revealed that apart from the mother, there was hardly any member of the family who had ever seen the face of this child.

When this woman from Cheshire, England was presented in court, the reason behind her act came to light. She said that she was not aware of her pregnancy and was very scared when she gave birth to the child. She also claimed that she did not keep the child in the drawer all the time.

What was the reason for hiding the child

However, the woman also told the police that the child was not a part of her family. She told the court that her relationship with the child's father had soured and she did not want him to know about the child. She claimed that this was the reason why she kept the child anonymous.

After hearing all the arguments, the court sentenced this woman to seven and a half years of imprisonment. The court said in its verdict that it is difficult to believe what the accused woman did. How can a mother be so cruel? She kept a small child away from all kinds of love and care. Neither was this child able to talk to anyone, nor did he get proper food and any timely treatment.

The child is unaware of even his own name

The court said that the woman tried to control the situation completely so that no one could know about this child. But, eventually, her horrifying secret was revealed to the world. This cruelty of his own mother had a deep impact on the child physically, psychologically and socially. This child is not able to react even when called by his name.

At the same time, the woman's lawyer argued in her defence that she was suffering from mental illnesses. She also faced the challenges of the lockdown imposed during the Covid pandemic. The lawyer told the court that the woman's relationship with the child's father had deteriorated. However, his arguments did not hold water in the court and the woman was sentenced to seven and a half years of imprisonment.
