Delhi Police Investigate IVF-Related Child Trafficking and Embryo Mix-Up CasesPreviousNext

Delhi police are investigating two separate cases involving IVF procedures and child trafficking. In one case, a racket led by Dr. Viveki allegedly sold infants to couples under false IVF claims, resulting in 15 arrests and seven children rescued. In another, a couple alleges an embryo mix-up at a fertility hospital, with DNA tests pending and donor cooperation lacking. Authorities continue probing both cases to clarify biological relationships and the extent of illegal activities.
