Cradle-snatcher
in Trinco hospital It was a horrifying experience for the 20-year-old mother, Samsun Nihara of Mullipottana, who had given birth to her second child around 7 a.m. on December 31. According to hospital sources, the mystery began around 3 p.m. on New Year's eve when an unidentified woman came to the maternity ward and took away the child claiming a medical officer wanted the baby for an examination. The baby was not seen after that, sending alarm bells instead of New Year bells ringing around the hospital. The hospital's new medical superintendent, Dr. (Mrs.) P.K. Gnanagunalan, who had assumed duties only two days ago acted fast and called in police who in turn alerted all stations to look out for the mystery woman and the baby. Picture shows Samsun Nihara, the victim of the mysterious cradle-snatching episode in the Trincomalee hospita soon after the incident. |
