Police in Chatroo have taken four additional suspects into custody while questioning a nurse linked to allegations of swapping infants in the minor death investigation.
Police in the remote village of Chatroo, Jammu and Kashmir, have expanded the investigation into a minor's death by detaining four more individuals. The arrests come after initial arrests raised questions about possible infant‑swapping activities surrounding the case. Investigators have also summoned a local nurse for questioning, seeking clarification on her role and any knowledge of the alleged swaps. Authorities said the nurse's statements could help determine whether the death was linked to a broader scheme of child trafficking. The police have not released the identities of the newly detained suspects or detailed the evidence that led to their custody, citing the sensitivity of the ongoing probe.
