Woman Sells Newborn Baby For N1.3million

A 30-year-old Chinese woman with the surnamed Huang, has landed herself in big trouble after she was caught selling her newborn baby for $7,000, about equivalent of N1.3million, in central China.

According to Chinese media reports, the incident is the latest of a string of shocking cases that have shed light on the country’s trade in children.

It was disclosed in the Procuratorial Daily, a legal publication, that the 30-year-old woman allegedly colluded with an obstetrician, Yang, in Xinxiang county, Henan province, to sell the baby boy.

The report stated that Yang sold the baby boy to a couple in the same county for 42,000 yuan. She gave 35,000 yuan to Huang and kept 7,000 yuan for herself. It was gathered that the case first came to light in August after the boy’s grandmother alerted police.

The grandmother said Huang had left the village to go to her parents’ home after quarreling with her husband.

When Huang returned two weeks later, she said the baby had died but the grandmother grew suspicious as her daughter-in-law didn’t seem sad. A relative then discovered that the boy had been sold.

Huang had a son from a previous marriage and thought a new baby would be bad for the elder child, reports said.

The boy is now in the care of his father’s family. Meanwhile, it was gathered that child trafficking is a long-standing problem in China due to the traditional preference for sons and the country’s one-child policy.
