Michelle Marie Gopaul arrested on charges of kidnapping baby
January 6th, 2011 - 1:16 am ICT by Aishwarya BhattToronto, Jan 5 (THAINDIAN NEWS) An aspiring actress, Michelle Marie Gopaul hatched a perfect plan to steal a child. Had it not been for a very “stubborn” cab driver, she would have successfully pulled off one of the best child kidnappings that have ever been known.
Well she failed in her kidnapping attempt, so the police have arrested her. Police say that the wannabe-Bollywood-star moved to Toronto and called her family and everyone who cared to know back home that she was pregnant. With the first part of her scheme hatched, she moved to the next step.
Gopaul then run an ad and inviting parents who want their children to act to bring them for auditioning. When she spotted the kind of child that she wanted, she made the selection and told the parents to hand over the child for familiarization.
The parents, the Patels told the police later that Gopaul told them that she wanted to know how the child will behave when she was alone with strangers. As such, they allowed Gopaul to take the child to a private room. Unknown to the Patels, Gopaul had another exit at the back of the private room.
She sneaked the child through that room and caught a cab that was being driven by Jaswinder Singh.
Singh later told the police that Gopaul told her to speed and ran red lights but he refused and Gopaul’s plans failed.
