A couple from Yadgir claiming to be parents of the seven-month-old baby handed over to a young man in Raichur recently have arrived in Mysuru seeking its custody.
It may be mentioned here that a woman handed over the baby boy to Raghu, a resident of HD Kote in Mysuru district, at Raichur bus stand about a week ago, asking him to look after the baby till she returns from the toilet.
But, when the woman did not return even after 2-3 hours and it was time for Raghu to board the bus, he brough the baby with him to Mysuru and handed it over to Lashkar Police station. The police produced the baby before the Child Welfare Committee (CWC) of Mysuru district before it was handed over to a government-recognised adoption agency in Mandya.
