Barboza's mother Carmine, 69, said, the family came to India every two years to meet relatives. She said, neither Barboza nor Jacintha had told her about the hoax call.
'Evrything seemed normal. But then we got a call last night from Benedict informing us that Jacintha had died. He was crying and couldn't speak much.
'We don't know whether we'll be able to bring her body back to India, but we desperately hope so.
'We spoke to Benedict again this morning and he said he hasn't been allowed to see her body yet because of legal formalities and she'll not be handed over before Monday.
'Jacintha was a very caring woman. We just cannot believe what has happened.'
