Snehlata, a doctor and Seema Chaudhary, a woman mediator, were held by the team in the decoy operation in Mathura, Uttar Pradesh, Special secretary, medical and health department Naveen Jain said.
Acting on a tip-off that the mediator based in Alwar, Rajasthan, facilitated sex determination and took pregnant women to Mathura for the test, a decoy operation led by Additional SP (PCPNDT Cell) Raghuveer Singh was planned and the accused were nabbed.
