A man believed to be in his 40s is in the grips of the Effiduase Police for allegedly stealing a one year girl who was receiving treatment at the St Joseph’s Hospital in Koforidua.

Luck however eluded him when nurses were alarmed about his demeanor and alerted the security about the his conduct.

According to a nurse, the man who hails from Asesewa in the Eastern region claimed the mother of the child had asked him to bring the child but in his caution statement at the police station the suspect said he had gone to pick the one year old girl to a prayer camp for prayers.

He’s expected to be arraigned before court in the coming days to face prosecution.
