(Bernama pic)IPOH: A woman has accused a private kindergarten here of being negligent in caring for her four-year-old son on his first day there, when he fell into a swimming pool next door, resulting in his death six days later.
The woman, D Nilaveni, 40, a trader, said the kindergarten had yet to explain the actual reason for her son, V Thanes Nair, being found unconscious in the adult swimming pool on April 17.
She said it was her son’s first day attending a trial class at the kindergarten.

How did my son, who was supposed to be under supervision, get to the swimming pool area?”
Thanes is the only child of Nilaveni and her husband, V Vijay, 43.
She urged the authorities to investigate what happened to him that day.
Nilaveni and her husband lodged a police report a day after the incident (April 18).
The kindergarten, Kinder Labz, said in a statement today that the management and staff were working closely with the authorities.
“We can confirm that Thanes was attending a trial class at our school when the tragedy took place at about 10am.
