Bengaluru: Married thrice but without a child, a 43-year-old woman allegedly kidnapped a four-year-old boy in northern Bengaluru last month, police said on Sunday.
The woman, Hemavathi, and her friend Khurshid alias Kamala allegedly kidnapped the boy from near his home in Hunasemaranahalli on October 25.
Police said Hemavathi, who had separated from all three husbands and did not have a child, sought Khurshid’s help to plan the abduction.
The boy’s father Amariah, 25, an autorickshaw driver, approached the police after his son went missing.
Investigators scanned CCTV footage, which showed a woman picking up the boy. Police later tracked down and arrested both women.
