KOLKATA, Feb 06: A Bangladeshi businessman, who brought his critically ill son to Kolkata for a kidney transplant last week, landed at East Jadavpur police station on Saturday after the donor -- a brother-in-law also brought from Bangladesh -- fled with all the cash and documents needed for the procedure, reports TNN.
A multi-agency operation followed, which also involved "syndicates" that help crossborder smuggling on either side of the international border, and the episode had a happy ending 30 hours later with the arrest of the donor-turned-thief from Petrapole, on the India-Bangladesh border, 85 kms from Kolkata.
