A pregnant woman, in Chandrapur, Maharashtra, who had set out with her 4-year-old son to get ice cream was found dead on Thursday morning near a river bridge. The young child had sat beside his mother's lifeless body throughout the night, according to a police official.

The incident occurred when Sushma Kakde, along with her son Durvansh, left her residence in Teachers' Colony, Ballarpur, at approximately 9:30 pm on Wednesday but failed to return within the expected timeframe. Superintendent of Police Ravindra Singh Pardesi reported that her husband, Pawankumar Kakde, who works at a bank, and other family members initiated a search when she didn't return as planned.

Some individuals alerted Pawankumar and his family to the discovery of Sushma's lifeless body near the Wardha river bridge on the Rajura-Ballarpur road. A police team arrived at the scene at 4 am on Thursday, finding young Durvansh sitting beside his deceased mother, profoundly distressed.

While preliminary investigations suggest that Sushma might have fallen onto a muddy area from the bridge late Wednesday night, authorities are examining all potential circumstances surrounding her tragic demise. A case has been registered in connection with the incident, stated Pardesi.
