A mother was arrested on Friday for selling her three-month-old son for 10,000 with the assistance of two other women at Tukaramgate while her husband was away.All the three women, including mother G Kavitha, have been arrested under the Juvenile Justice Act. Poverty was the reason for sale, police said.

Police said that a week ago, Kavitha had contacted M Sumalatha of Machiryal to find her a prospective buyer. Sumalatha in turn contacted Anjali who had no children despite



being married for 10 years.Once the deal was struck, Kavitha sold her son for `10,000 without the knowledge of her husband Raju.

“Raju, who works as a labourer, was not at home for a week. Using this opportunity , Kavitha put her son for sale.When Raju asked his wife about the boy, initially she tried to fob him off but later confessed that she had sold the boy . The three were arrested on Raju's complaint,“ Tukaramgate Inspector Ramesh said.
