The Bombay High Court on Wednesday told the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) that it will have to pay compensation of minimum Rs 10 lakh to the parents of a new-born child, which went missing from the government-run Sion Hospital on January 1 this year.

The judges asked the civic body to tell the court on Thursday how much compensation it was ready to pay to Mohan and Mohini Nerulkar, the parents of the missing child.
