The incident took place on Wednesday afternoon at 3:30 pm. "While, the deceased mother was in the bedroom of the flat. He was sitting on the open balcony and may have lost balance to fall on the ground. He was shifted to hospital and was declared dead on the spot due to serious injuries," said a police officer.

The police during investigation found no witness to the incident.
