Illegally adopted child sent with parents

Kozhikode

The Child Welfare Committee of Kozhikode sent the 4-year-old-boy, who was illegally adopted by a couple in Chakkumkadavu, Kozhikode, with his biological parents. CWC Chairman P.M. Thomas said that the child left with his parents for Wayanad on Wednesday.

The child was found by the police at his adoptive home at Chakkumkadavu a month ago after one of the actual children of the adoptive parents reported it at his school following which the Child Welfare Committee intervened. The CWC wanted to give the child back to his biological parents if they were willing to accept him, or else start legal adoption proceedings for him.
