Gujarat Police Rescue Newborn, Arrest 3 in Trafficking Bust
Quick-thinking police officers in Gujarat rescued a newborn baby and arrested three suspected traffickers before the child could be transported across state lines. The coordinated effort between multiple law enforcement agencies may help dismantle a larger criminal network.
Police in Gujarat saved a newborn baby from suspected traffickers this week, intercepting the child before the accused could complete their plans. The rescue happened near Ahmedabad airport when officers acted on intelligence from the state's Anti-Terrorist Squad.
A team from the Detection of Crime Branch set up surveillance near Kotarpur Pumping Station on January 28. They stopped a white Maruti Ertiga traveling from Himmatnagar toward the airport and found the infant with three occupants.
The three arrested individuals are from different parts of India. Authorities also detained the vehicle's driver as the investigation continues.
The Bright Side
The newborn is now safe and receiving medical care under the supervision of a Child Welfare Officer. The successful intervention shows how information sharing between law enforcement agencies can protect vulnerable children before harm occurs.
Police are working to identify and apprehend others potentially involved in the suspected network. The operation spanned multiple states, demonstrating the reach and coordination of Indian law enforcement when protecting children.
The child's rescue represents hours of careful police work paying off at exactly the right moment.
