Sold twice, Mumbai toddler rescued from Tamil Nadu couple

A tiny baby boy who is one and a half years old lives in Mumbai.

His own father is accused of selling him to strangers for money.

Some people then sold the baby again to a couple far away in Tamil Nadu.

The couple paid even more money for him.

The baby's uncle went to look for him at a hospital.

He could not find the baby there.

The baby's mother told the uncle that the baby had been sold.

The police, called the Dharavi police, found the baby and saved him.

Nine people were arrested for being part of this bad plan.
