In a separate incident, Delhi Police busted a major human trafficking syndicate involved in the illegal sale and purchase of newborn babies, arresting 12 accused persons, including the alleged kingpin of the racket, a woman who claimed to be a doctor. According to police sources, the woman owns a nursing home and allegedly represented herself as a doctor. However, police are currently verifying her educational and professional credentials and have not yet confirmed whether she is a qualified medical practitioner. Five newborn babies have been rescued during the operation. Of them, one infant is four months old, two are 27 days old, one is 20 days old, and another is just five days old. Police sources said the probe has so far uncovered evidence suggesting that more than 20 newborn babies may have been trafficked through the network. (ANI)
