Molo,Kenya:Police in Molo have arrested a 22 year-old-woman after she was  found with a kidnapped baby from Molo district hospital on Friday.

The three months old master Samuel Njihia Karanja was rescued by police after getting tip off from members of the public at Murinduko shopping Centre.

Molo police boss Job Leskinywa said the boy was kidnapped some minutes after being taken for clinical checkup at Molo district hospital.

The mother of the child Mary Wangari had left the baby in care of her young sister to buy mandazi in a nearby kiosk, upon her return she was informed that a certain lady had taken the baby to unknown direction.

This prompted serious search as the family made a formal report at Molo police station that ended fruitless.

The police boss Job Leskinyw said the woman will be arraigned in court to face charges after investigation is complete.
