Maha: Woman poses as nurse, abducts baby from hospital, held

The woman, identified as Vandana Jethe (24), was moving in the corridors of Sassoon General Hospital here on Thursday wearing a white apron, the kind worn by nurses, and approached a 22-year-old woman who had come there with an infant in her arms, an official said.

"The accused told the woman someone was looking for her, and the latter entrusted the infant with Jethe and moved ahead. When she came back, the accused and the infant were not to be seen in the ward. On being alerted, we checked the CCTV footage of the hospital and apprehended the accused," the Bundgarden police station official said.
