Two sisters held for kidnapping a newborn baby Police on Friday arrested two sisters for their alleged involvement in kidnapping a newborn baby boy from a private hospital in Gulberg.

Police said a woman, namely Humaira, had registered a complaint at the Baldia Town police station on Sunday, claiming that her newborn baby boy had been kidnapped from the hospital. However, during the investigation, police found a twist in the story. Police said Humaira was not the mother of the boy, but she had registered the complaint to dupe the police into believing that she was the victim.

Humaira told police that she had handed over the boy to her sister, Kanwal, who then handed over the boy to a garbage picker in Gulberg. The police are tracing the garbage picker to safely recover the boy.
