adminPolice spokesperson Ana-Mari Gates-Bowey says 24-year-old Neha Narayan has been charged with abduction and faces up to seven years in prison if convicted.
Gates-Bowey said on Tuesday that Narayan told her partner she was pregnant months before walking into Middlemore Hospital in Auckland on 3 January and “patrolling” the baby ward before snatching a two-day-old baby.
Gates-Bowey said a suspicious nurse followed Narayan out of the hospital and confronted her when she reached a car, where her partner was waiting.
Narayan has handed authorities her Fijian passport and was released on bail. – AP.
