Some even invoked curses on persons disputing the pregnancy claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Josephine, who is now being treated as a suspect, hasn\u2019t been released to her family since she was found on September 21.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCan they also deliver her to us, so we do a test by ourselves with a different doctor so that we can also bring records because we don\u2019t have any access?
