They were roaming the streets, allegedly trying to sell the child. Erongo police deputy commissioner Erastus Ikuyu said the police were informed that the child was safely returned to his mother, but are yet to establish that fact. \u201cThe colleague who took the child told our investigators that he returned the child to its mother.
