FAISALABAD (ENNS) A female employee of Allied Hospital has been found to be involved in the sale of 1,200 newborns.
During investigation, the accused, KhursheedaBibi, told the police that she had been buying and selling newborns for the past 30 years. She said three gynaecologists of Allied Hospital were also involved in the illegal business.
According to KhursheedaBibi, they sold male newborns for Rs300,000 each while female newborns would be given for Rs200,000 each.
“The money we made by selling newborns would also be spent on the (hospital’s) ward,” she told the police. “I would only get the commission (on each sale).”
Police said KhursheedaBibi and her husband would also sell illegitimate newborns.
A case was filed against the accused and she was sent on judicial remand.
However, when the hospital management was approached they denied KhursheedaBibi’s claims of gynaecologists also being involved in the illegal business.
