Indore: The two-year-old child who was sold by a couple was born at Sainath Hospital in Sukhliya area and his biological mother is a woman from Dhamnod. Police are now trying to trace the mother with the help of records at the hospital, which is now closed.
Nine persons have been arrested so far in the child trafficking case.
Woman police station in-charge Jyoti Sharma said Dr Ramakant, one of the accused, told them that the person who had given him the child two years back had told him that the child's mother was from Dhamnod and she had given birth in Sainath Hospital. Police believe that they will be able to establish the identity of the child once they get hold of the mother.
