The Kerala State Human Rights Commission (KSHRC) has directed the Revenue Divisional Officer (RDO) to conduct a thorough investigation into the death of five-year-old Muhammed Adam at a jungle park in Pazhanganad, Kochi. The incident occurred on April 21, when Adam, a student from a pre-school in Palarivattom, went missing during a lunch break. After a search, he was discovered in a swamp and later pronounced dead at a local hospital.
