Udupi Nursing Home Owner Arrested in Illegal Adoption Scandal

A Udupi nursing home owner and two associates were detained on Thursday after police uncovered evidence of an illegal adoption scheme linked to the facility.

The authorities claim the trio conspired to facilitate the transfer of children for financial gain, disregarding legal protocols and the rights of birth parents. Investigators seized documents and communication records that allegedly reveal the procurement of babies through deceitful means.

The case has prompted the temporary closure of the nursing home and a review of its licensing documents, raising concerns about child protection policies in the district. Source: Google News – Udupi.
