A newborn baby in India was rescued at the last minute from being sold by his own grandfather in order to fund his drug problem. <\/p>\n
47- year old Feroz Khan has been arrested for allegedly conspiring with two hospital employees to kidnap the baby just hours after he was born; his plan was to sell the child to a Facebook friend whose wife had trouble conceiving. Luckily, the child’s mother found out about the plot and alerted police. The baby was returned unharmed to his mother, and a total of four people are now facing charges.<\/p>\n
“We acted upon the complaint of the mother, who alleged that her child was stolen from the nursing home in Ludhiana,” Ishwar Singh, Ludhiana’s Commissioner of Police, said<\/a>. “After investigations, we found the grandfather of the child had struck a deal with a man in Delhi and had roped-in the nursing staff to smuggle the baby out of the nursing home. We have arrested four people including the grandfather. We have also booked the buyer from Delhi.”<\/p>\n Khan was allegedly asking for about $830 for the child. <\/p>\n Classy.Baby sold on Facebook for drug money upi.com\/blog\/2013\/04\/2\u2026<\/a> via @upi<\/a><\/p>\n — Jill Partin (@jillpartin) April 25, 2013<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n
