A newborn baby was today stolen from the government hospital at Nadiad in Kheda district of Gujarat, police said.
Rukaiyaben Shabai, the complainant, delivered a baby boy at the Nadiad Civil Hospital around 2 pm today. Soon after a woman approached her while her family members were present around. She said she was a volunteer working for the hospital and offered to take the baby for immunisation, police said.
When she took the baby away, Shabai's sister followed the woman, who, however, returned the baby saying she will do it later as the room where immunisation was to be done was closed.
Later, when Shabai's husband had gone home and her sister was out of the hospital, the woman came again and took the baby and disappeared, police said.
Police said the CCTV footage shows the woman and the efforts to trace her were on.
