“She had checked into a service apartment in Candolim- north Goa on Sunday morning with her son and left for Bengaluru on Monday morning after committing the crime in the room. "She was arrested in Karnataka. We have taken transit remand of her and are expected to reach Goa by tonight,” Karpe told IANS, adding that the Goa Police team is in Karnataka.
