In a shocking case from Bongaigaon district in Assam, a couple has confessed to selling their two infant children, with reports indicating that one of the infants was bought by a serving police officer. The parents, Pranab Das and Budhu Bala Das, surrendered to the Bongaigaon Child Welfare Committee and admitted to the sale.
This disturbing revelation has sent ripples throughout the community, especially after it was revealed that one of the children was allegedly acquired by a police official stationed in Bongaigaon. While authorities have not disclosed the identity of the officer, public outrage is escalating, leading to increased demands for a thorough and impartial investigation.
The situation became even more alarming when the second child’s whereabouts remained unknown for several hours after the confession. Initially hesitant to share details, the couple eventually disclosed that the second child had been sold to a businessman in Bilasipara. The identity of this businessman, like that of the police officer, has not yet been confirmed.
Anger and frustration have erupted among local residents and child welfare advocates, who are questioning how a law enforcement officer could be involved in such a grave crime. Child rights organizations are calling for urgent action, pressing for a transparent inquiry to ensure that all those implicated face justice swiftly.
