An Anambra-based doctor has been arrested, along
with his accomplice, for allegedly being part of a plot to sell an unborn
child.
The two men had reportedly planned to sell
the baby for N70,000, Punch
reports.
However, the accused doctor, Daniel
Ikebuilo, owner of Ikemefuna Hospital and Maternity in Umunnachi,
has denied the allegations. His accomplice is reportedly named Uwandu
Kelechi.
“It is just allegation that I have a case
with the police in Anambra over child trafficking, that matter is in court at
the moment. This person (Kelechi) claims that he brings pregnant women to me to
deliver and sell but it is not true. I have been practising for 20 years. I
have written my statement, whatever it is, I am ready to defend myself because
my hands are clean,” said Ikebuilo.
A pregnant woman, Rosemary Chukwu,
reportedly levelled the accusation against the pair.
