FAISALABAD:

Police on Saturday claimed to have arrested two security guards over their alleged involvement in the abduction of a newborn baby from a hospital in Faisalabad.

According to the details, the police took the security guards into custody after they saw the security guards talking to the kidnapper in CCTV footage of the incident. Police officials said that they took the security guards into custody for further interrogation.

Earlier on August 21, a shrewd burqa-clad woman had kidnapped a newborn baby from Allied Hospital, Faisalabad and fled away easily. As per details, Nosheen, a resident of Faisalabad’s Nisar Colony had given birth to a baby girl two days ago, but the happiness of the family did not last long.

An unknown burqa-clad woman had reached the mother’s room to congratulate the family and asked to handover the baby girl to her for vaccination. The woman could be seen fleeing from the hospital with the infant in CCTV footage available with the media.

Hearing the news of the kidnap, the grandfather of the baby girl had suffered a heart attack due to shock and lost his life.
