Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) Police on Tuesday solved a dramatic case of a one-day-old baby's abduction in the limits of Khanna police station, revealing that the perpetrator was none other than the infant's father.
A police spokesperson said that under the supervision of SHO Amir Hayat, the police swiftly acted on a distressed call received through Rescue services reporting that a newborn baby girl had been kidnapped from Bilal Town, Chishtia Market. SHO Hayat registered a case and launched an investigation, reviewing CCTV footage and questioning hospital staff, midwives, nurses, doctors, and neighbours. Even a beggar woman sitting outside the house was interrogated, he said, adding that suspicion gradually centred on the baby's father, Ibrahim. Police seized all mobile phones and retrieved deleted data, including a message reading "Allah Hafiz, bye bye." After repeated questioning, Ibrahim confessed that he had handed over the baby to his friend Shazia, who then delivered her to a woman named Iqra.
He said Iqra, who had deceived her in-laws by pretending to be pregnant for nine months using an artificial belly, received the child with the help of her husband Tayyab.
