A single mother of four was so poor she felt forced to sell her newborn son for £130 in rural India.
Gauri Shah, 32, who lives in a slum near
railway tracks in a village, in Jalpaiguri, West Bengal with her three
daughters aged between three and eight years old was abandoned by her
husband eight months ago when she was expecting her fourth child.
She sold the baby boy to a childless couple but he was rescued after neighbours raised the alarm.
This is the new newborn baby sold for
just £130 becuase his mum is too poor to keep him after her husband
left her eight months ago
She said: ‘My husband
left me eight months ago with three daughters. We depend on whatever
money my mother manages to collect. She had to borrow Rs 100 (£1) from
our neighbour for my delivery. I have no money to raise my children, how
will I take care of another?
Gauri Shah and her daughter sit
together outside their house - her neighbours raised the alarm after she
sold her 10 day old baby in Jalpaiguri in West Bengal.
