A woman, who attempted to steal another’s baby at a hospital, has been arrested. The suspect had all along pretended to be carrying a pregnancy, but she wasn’t actually expecting a child.
Not many in the maternity ward suspected her sinister plan. She then moved to steal a one-week old baby from her mother’s side and presented the same as hers.
The suspect was caught and handed to the law enforcement.
Dr. Ayobi Abdul Rahman of the Zebilla District Hospital, in Ghana where the incident had taken place, said they had handed the baby back to her mother.
