A 47-year-old woman committed suicide after killing her two differently abled children on Tuesday at her residence in Mira Road. According to the police, Nasin Bano, a resident of C2 building at Narendra Park, fed sleeping pills to her 21-year-old daughter Sadad Naaz and 13-year-old son Mohammad Arsh and killed herself after that. 

Some of the neighbours told police that Bano and her husband Nasreen had separated a year ago, as the latter could not cope with the challenges of raising two differently abled children. Since her divorce, Bano was staying with her elderly father at Naya Nagar in Mira Road. The neighbours also told the police that Bano was depressed because of her divorce, and maybe that was the reason she took the drastic step.
