Hyderabad surrogacy racket: 'Parents' refuse custody of infant after DNA report; CWC to declare child free for adoption if no claim made in 2 months
HYDERABAD: Caught in the middle of the alleged baby-selling racket busted by Hyderabad police, the fate of a nearly two-month-old infant now hangs in balance. As per protocol, the boy has been temporarily shifted to the govt-run Sishu Vihar in Ameerpet. But what his future holds, is tough to guess just yet. The city couple who was given the infant on June 5 by Universal Srushti Fertility Centre in Secunderabad run by prime accused Dr Namratha - under the false pretext of the kid being their biological son - has refused to take him back.

Clinic paid Rs 90k to biological parents for their newborn They were among the eight arrested by Gopalapuram police on July 27 for various charges including cheating and forgery. Initial investigation reveals that the biological parents, originally from Assam and settled in Hyderabad, were paid Rs 90,000 by the fertility clinic in exchange for their newborn. The baby was handed over to the Hyderabad couple — complainants in the case — two days later. They were told the child was born through surrogacy and charged around Rs 35 lakh for it. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like New Container Houses In Bantuas Container House | Search ads Search Now But after a DNA test rubbished the clinic's claim, the couple filed a police complaint and have since refused possession of the child. 'The couple feels that they have been deceived. They do not want the child since he is not biologically theirs,' said a senior official from the Telangana health, family and welfare dept. He added: 'Moreover, the facial features of the child are distinctly different from them as the child was born to a couple from another region.' Repeated attempts to reach the complainants for a comment failed. Officials at Sishu Vihar, meanwhile, said that the child will remain there until the police inquiry is completed. This is keeping with the Central Adoption Resource Authority guidelines, which govern the process of adoption in India. 'Once the inquiry is done, the CWC will issue public notification asking biological parents or relatives to come forward to claim the child. This will be in force for two months,' said an official from the adoption cell of the WCD. They will also have to produce valid documents and meet eligibility criteria, such as a stable home environment, to establish their claim. 'But if no one comes forward during this period, the child will be declared legally free for adoption under the Juvenile Justice Act. At that point, the child will become eligible for adoption by prospective parents, following CARA's official guidelines,' the official added.

Allahabad HC Shields Juvenile From Adult Trial, Flags Dangers Of Digital Age
Last Updated: The 16-year-old boy was accused of rape and causing abortion 'The good-old-days icon of a truant child seems to get replaced by the modern-day mascot of a violent predator," the Allahabad High Court observed, as it intervened to stop the adult prosecution of a 16-year-old boy accused of rape and causing abortion. Quoting with approval from the Bombay High Court's observations on the psychological fallout of unregulated digital exposure, the court noted that 'television, internet and social media have let the children, especially the adolescents, leapfrog into the adult world… Mostly it is a crash-landing, with disastrous consequences." The remarks came as Justice Siddharth allowed a criminal revision filed by a minor, referred to as Juvenile X, against orders of the Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) and a special POCSO court in Kaushambi that had directed he be tried as an adult for a 'heinous offence". A consensual physical relationship developed between the juvenile and a 14-year-old girl, which led to pregnancy. When the girl was five months pregnant, it was alleged that the boy, with the help of two adults, gave her medicine that caused a miscarriage. He was booked under POCSO, and the JJB conducted a preliminary assessment under Section 15 of the Juvenile Justice Act, concluding he should face an adult trial. However, the High Court found that the process adopted by the Board and the POCSO court was not in conformity with the law. The boy had undergone a psychological evaluation that revealed a mental age of six years and an IQ of 66, indicative of mild intellectual disability. He struggled with academic performance, had poor social interaction, and scored in the borderline to mild clinical range on behavioural tests. Despite these findings, the JJB dismissed the report and based its decision largely on the allegations and the statement of the victim. 'This Court finds that the report of psychologist was in favour of the revisionist… the revisionist with score of 62 comes in borderline category which is even below the category of low/below average," the court said, adding that 'he was not capable nor he took decision to administer the victim medicine alone". Justice Siddharth observed that 'an order under Section 15… not only gives a different legal character to a juvenile… but also takes away the application of the beneficial provisions" under juvenile law. The court stressed that such an order must be the result of 'a crucial judicial examination", and not a routine endorsement of FIR content or assumptions about intent. Criticising what it described as a 'mechanical" application of Section 15, the court said, 'Retributive approach vis-à-vis juveniles needs to be shunned unless there are exceptional circumstances… Let no child be condemned unless his fate is foreordained by his own destructive conduct". The orders of the JJB and POCSO court were set aside, and the High Court directed that the boy be tried as a juvenile under the special procedure laid down in the Juvenile Justice Act. view comments Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
