After receiving a tip-off that the gang is indulged in child trafficking, the police drew a plan to trap the gang. The police contacted Sharmila on the telephone last week pretending themselves as a rich couple who can buy a child at any price. Sharmila assured the couple that she would arrange a newborn baby for them and they fixed the deal at Rs 2.5 lakh.
Later, Sharmila told the couple that it would be difficult for her to arrange the newborn baby as delivery of the mother is postponed. Then, she offered a four-year-old girl to the couple for which she again asked Rs 2.5 lakh. The decoy couple arrived near Medical Square where Sharmila and Surendra also arrived with the girl on Saturday evening. The accused accepted Rs 2.5 lakh from the couple and handed over the girl to them. Within a second, a team of SSB arrived at the spot and arrested the accused. Another accused was also arrested by the police within an hour.
