The accused include an assistant professor of Gynecology at Government Medical College; a gynaecologist at a private hospital in Kottayam; two staff nurses at Kozhikode Medical College hospital.

On Thursday barring the gynecologist, the other three presented themselves before the Kozhikode police who recorded their arrest and later let them go on bail.
