Suchana Seth, CEO of Mindful AI Lab, was arrested by Goa Police in Karnataka, India on Monday.
She was detained when she was returning from the neighbouring state by taxi and arrested after the body was found in her luggage.
Seth checked into a hotel with her son on Saturday but the boy wasn’t present when she checked out on Monday night, said Goa police inspector Paresh Naik.
He added that the hotel staff found blood stains in the room after her departure and informed the police.
