RAJBIRAJ: A woman burnt her one-and-a-half-month-old son to death and set herself on fire after a family dispute with her husband in Rajbiraj, Saptari, today. Shakuntala Sah, the second wife of Prakash Sah, burnt the son Prince using kerosene and made an unsuccessful self-immolation attempt. Prakash had returned home a few days ago from Dubai where he was working. “They were having frequent disputes after Shakuntala insisted Prakash not to go back to Dubai for employment,” said a local. Body of the deceased minor has been taken to Sagarmatha Zonal Hospital, Rajbiraj, for post-mortem. Shakuntala, who has been critically injured with burns, has been referred to Biratnagar after her treatment at Gajendra Narayan Singh Hospital, Rajbiraj. SP Shishir Kumar Karmacharya said further investigation into the incident is underway.
