Natives of Muzafarabad district of Bihar state, Manojram and his wife Nirmala migrated to Karimnagar to work in granite quarries and are staying at Asifnagar in Kothapalli mandal. Nirmala gave birth to a baby girl in MCHC on February 16. On Sunday, she was shifted to ICU when she developed convulsions and the baby was in general ward.

Based on the complaint, police registered the case and began investigation by forming special teams. Taskforce and special branch police found a woman carrying a baby by analyzing CCTV footage. They arrested Mokkera Kavitha Alias Padma of Thakkalapalli under Basanthnagar police station limits of Peddapalli district. Based on the information given by her, police arrested a DHMS doctor Yerramaraju Jaggamraju from Jammikunta.
On questioning, she revealed that based on the advice by Jaggamraju, she came to MCHC to kidnap either infant boy or girl. While moving to the hospital, she found a baby girl with a boy. Knowing that the boy does not know Telugu language, Kavitha took the baby from the boy on the pretext of administering a vaccine. She came out from hospital and took an autorickshaw to reach Karimnagar bus stand where she boarded Jammikunta bus. Jaggamraju confirmed that the health condition of the baby was good and offered milk. Later, she went to Thakkalapally.
