The extraordinary incident has led to the arrest of a businessman in India who attempted to buy the baby through the social media website. The man is reported to have paid 800,000 rupees (approx. $14,750) for the newborn baby.

According to local authorities, grandfather Feroz Khan kidnapped his newly born grandson from the boy's mother in Ludhiana, Punjab, India.

After the mother gave birth to the boy the grandfather told her that the child had been stillborn. The grandfather is alleged to have sold the baby to a nurse at the hospital, who in turn sold the baby to a lab technician.

The lab technician, Gurpreet Singh, later posted a picture of the young boy when he was three days old on Facebook. Businessman Amit Kumar saw the Facebook post and offered to purchase the newborn.
