Hyderabad Fertility Clinic Busted for Illegal Surrogacy Racket
A fertility clinic in Secunderabad was caught doing some bad things.
They promised a couple a baby through surrogacy, but the baby wasn't theirs.
The clinic was using poor people as surrogates and sending sperm and eggs to other states without permission.
The police arrested the doctor in charge and others involved in this illegal operation.
They are now trying to figure out how big this illegal network is and if they broke any rules.
Police in Secunderabad busted a surrogacy and sperm trafficking racket, arresting 10 people.
A couple discovered their surrogate-born child was not genetically related to them, prompting an investigation.
Dr. Namrata, manager of Universal Srushti Fertility Centre, is among those arrested.
