Mangaluru, Nov 30: Three youths have been arrested by Dakshina Kannada district police on charge of kidnapping and trafficking a two-month old baby under the limits of Uppinangadi police station, Tuesday.

babyThe arrested have been identified as Muhammed Udaif (28), from Bengaluru, Siyab (24) from Hirebandady, and Sameer (21). Police said that locals in Perne had complained that three young men were seen with a newborn and had hired a house. They suspected that the baby could have been kidnapped.

Based on their complaint, police went to the house. During questioning, the youngsters said that they had agreed to look after the baby as the father, hailing from Bengaluru, had told them that soon after giving birth, the baby's mother had left for Nepal.

Police are investigating whether their claims are true. "We have asked the parents of the child to come to Puttur for verification. There will be a DNA test conducted to ascertain the real parents," police added. Parents of the child are expected to come on Wednesday evening to Puttur.

The baby is in the care of the Child Welfare Department in Puttur. A case has been registered at Uppinangadi police station.

None should jump to conclusion that baby was kidnapped unless thorough investigation is done. May be the parents sold the baby to others. Let us wait and see.

Bengaluru, Jun 9: A 42-year-old founding director of an engineering consultancy firm lost Rs 65,000 to online fraudsters who posed as representatives of a mobile service provider and lured him with the offer of a fancy number recently.

Asif (name changed) received a text message on May 19, informing him that a platinum number, 9099999999, was available and interested people could dial a mobile number to avail it.

“Asif, who runs a mechanical, electrical, plumbing (MEP) engineering consultancy near Shivajinagar, decided to get the fancy mobile number. He called the number and the receiver said they would generate an invoice for his request. After a fake invoice for Rs 64,900 was generated, Asif paid the money through online transaction that day. Asif waited for two weeks for the SIM card with the fancy number to reach him,” an officer said.

East CEN Crime police registered a case of cheating under section 420 of IPC and sections under the Information Technology Act after Asif lodged a complaint on June 6.
