Putana a witch sent by Kamsa to kill Krsna shortly after He appeared. Assuming the form of a beautiful nursemaid, she tried to kill Krsna by putting her poison-smeared breast in His mouth, but Krsna sucked the life-air out of her body, and following that, mercifully granted her the liberation of being His nursemaid in His eternal Pastimes.
