Aparently, the police said in a statement that the baby had been initially admitted for severe malnourishment in 1 March and the baby was released to parents after treatment. However, then in a follow up appointment the baby had lost a significant amount of weight and was demanded for next appointment. But the parents cancelled the upcoming appointment and could not be located. The baby was finally taken into custody after police pulled over them in a traffic stop.

Moreover, the baby's mom livestreamed her conversation with police before rushing to hospital and she was seen asking the police the reasons for why couldn't she be with her baby during the medical work. The police responded to the mother stating that the baby was in imminent danger and wanted to get him the help that he needed at that moment. The police also asked her to leave from the ambulance and if not, they threatened to arrest her.
