"During interrogation, the accused confessed to purchasing the newborn from a person named Munnu near Himmatnagar for Rs 3,60,000.
They were en route to Hyderabad to sell the infant to an agent named Nagraj," the statement added.
The Detection of Crime Branch (DCB) of Ahmedabad City Police on Thursday said it has arrested three persons, including a woman, and rescued from them a newborn baby whom they “purchased” in Sabarkantha district and were taking to Hyderabad for “sale”.
The child trafficking racket spanning Gujarat, Telangana and Uttar Pradesh was busted based on the inputs provided by Gujarat Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS).
Upon inspection, a newborn baby was found in the possession of the occupants,” said a statement from the Crime Branch.
