Amrutha was admitted to the district hospital on June 17th to prepare for her delivery. The doctor chose to undergo a C-section because she was not able to give birth normally.

Amrutha and her husband Arjun claimed that during the mother's surgery, Dr. Nijamuddin allegedly sliced the baby's genitalia.

The baby was taken to a private hospital as his condition worsened, where he passed away. The parents claimed that medical negligence was the reason for their newborn's death.
