The Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) on Thursday sent notices to the AIIMS Director and the Delhi Medical Council over alleged stealing of a newborn at Safdarjung Hospital here.

A woman had alleged in January that one of her newborn twins was stolen from the hospital. Her delivery had taken place on December 21, 2016.

DCW chairperson Swati Maliwal has also issued a notice to the Delhi Police for allegedly failing to register a case in this regard.

The police have informed the DCW that they have sent a report on the case to AIIMS and Delhi Medical Council, asking for clarification, Ms. Maliwal said.

They have also requested the AIIMS management to form a committee to look into the case, she said.
