The Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) on Thursday told the Bombay High Court that it could pay Rs 5 lakh to Mohan and Mohini Nerurkar - whose newborn child was stolen by unidentified woman from government-run Lokmanya Tilak hospital here two months back.

Yesterday, division bench of Justices Bilal Nazki and AR Joshi had asked MCGM how much compensation it was ready to pay to Nerurkars. It must not be less than Rs 10 lakh, court had added.
