The boy was one of the prematurely born twins (boy and girl) on the morning of November 30 to Varsha at the hospital. The other baby was stillborn. The mother was brought to the hospital from a nursing home in Paschim Vihar, police had said.
The hospital had earlier told the parents that both the babies were stillborn. They were handed to them in a polythene bag, but just before their last rites, the family found that the boy was alive, police said.
