Chennai, April 26 (IANS) Tamil Nadu Police on Friday arrested an ambulance driver and a nurse in Namakkal district in connection with the case of selling babies, officials said here.

According to police, the ambulance driver Murugesan and Parveen, a female nurse working in a private hospital in Erode, were arrested after investigations.
