CHENNAI, India, June 25 (AFP): Police in southern India said Monday they had detained a doctor couple who allowed their 15- year-old son to perform a caesarean section in a bid to enter the record books.
The pair raised a furore after they proudly showed colleagues a video allegedly showing their schoolboy son Dileepan Raj cut open an expectant mother and claimed he deserved a place in the Guinness Book of World Records.
"The doctor and his wife are being questioned. It is not an arrest at the moment," a police spokesman in Mannaparai in the southern state of Tamil Nadu told the news agency.
