The couple – M Ramulu and Bheemamma – have a four-year-old boy and Bhemamma recently delivered their second child. The couple, who used to eke out a living seeking alms, sold their second child a few days after delivery for Rs 80,000.
Two mediators Saleem and Muneer had facilitated the deal and the nine-day-old baby was sold to their relatives, who were, presently, in Hyderabad.
Tandur Sub-Inspector K Giri said a case was booked against the child’s parents based on a complaint received from a member of childline helpline. He said the motive behind selling the baby was yet to be known. The couple claimed that they sold their son to clear debts.
