No Leads In Abduction Of Month-Old Baby

FRANCISTOWN: Police are yet to establish leads that could result in the arrest of a woman believed to be in her 30s, who allegedly abducted a one-month-old baby from its Francistown mother, 31-year-old Kelebogile Chipoye.

Chipoye is said to have been tricked into handing over the baby by the woman who is believed to be from neighbouring Zimbabwe. The woman instantly vanished with the child. The incident happened at Nswazwi Mall.

“At the moment we are yet to get leads in the case. We cannot even speculate as to whether the woman has crossed (the borderline) with the baby to Zimbabwe or not. We are clueless as of now,” Francistown Police station commander, Lebalang Maniki told The Monitor on Friday, a week after the incident took place.
