BHUBANESWAR:
Saraswati Sahu was eagerly waiting at the Childline office here on Monday to
get her three-month-old baby son who was kidnapped by some miscreants in the
wee hours on October 11 from the Bhubaneswar Railway Station. The baby was
handed over to Sahu following the decision of the Child Welfare Committee (CWC).
The CWC committee members said
the mother and the child duo would live in the Swadhar home after their
treatment. As the health condition of the child is not good, the Childline
would take care of the child’s health, the committee members added.
After rescuing the baby from Nischintkoili
area in Cuttack
district on Saturday, the Government Railway Police (GRP) staff
handed over him to Childline. Police arrested a person in connection with the
child theft case.
Sahu reached the office on
Sunday with the help of GRP police
and saw her son at the shelter home.
It may be noted that on
Thursday midnight, two
bike-borne miscreants forcefully took away the baby son from Saraswati when she
was taking rest at the railway station. She lodged a complaint at the GRP police
station about the kidnapping of her son. The GRP staff
at first took the matter lightly, but after intervention of media, they started
an investigation to trace the baby.
The police rescued the baby
from a couple of Gopapur village under Nischintkoili police station limits. The
couple Surendra Behera and his wife Santoshi Behera had kept the child, said
the GRP
officials. Mitu Behera of Kedargouri area was arrested in connection with the
case.
Saraswati, who hails from Angul
district, was abandoned by his husband after marriage. A case was also lodged
against her husband for leaving her helplessly. She gave birth to the son
during last Rath Yatra here.
