Mumbai, Jun 10: A private hospital doctor in Govandi was booked by the crime branch for helping a man prepare bogus documents to show delivery of a 10-year-old boy they had brought from Rajasthan for adoption. An anonymous complaint was received by crime branch in 2018 while probing a child-trafficking racket. The man was also booked.
Mulund resident Rajesh Jangam and Dr Zikrullah Azmi were booked under IPC sections for cheating, forgery, breach of trust and criminal intimidation. Jangam brought the baby to Azmi's hospital in Govandi, in January 2018 and got his wife admitted there, the police said.
"The three made it appear the baby was delivered at Azmi's hospital. With the doctor's help they made fake documents and submitted them for a birth certificate from BMC," said an officer. Police are recording statements of the doctor and Jangams.
