Child kidnapper caught on camera at Mumbai station

Mumbai: The Mumbai Police has released a CCTV footage from the city's biggest train station which shows a man kidnapping a baby girl. Please call Senior Inspector Surendra Deshmukh of the CST Police station at 022-22620173 if you can provide more information on this man.

The footage from Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST) shows how a man gets off a train, wanders around the waiting room of the station, spots a family with a sleeping baby, sits beside her and then disappears with the child; all this in less than five minutes.

According to the police, the incident took place on June 10 around 2 am.

The police says, the child's parents were contract labourers from Vidarbha who cleaned the railway tracks. They were returning back home but missed their train and decided to spend the night at the station itself.

The police have registered a case of kidnapping and are looking for the accused, who was seen limping in the video, and is reportedly aged between 25 to 30 years.
