A Russian woman was recently arrested for selling her newborn baby to pay $3,581 (Rs 286,163) for a nose job. The 33-year-old woman, whose name has not been disclosed, gave birth to a baby boy on April 25 and she reportedly sold him off just five days later to a local couple looking to become parents.
According to Daily Star, the woman was taken into custody in late May on suspicion of human trafficking. Russian officials revealed that she gave birth at a hospital in the southern city of Kaspiysk. However, later, she met with a local resident and agreed to hand over her newborn son for a reward of 200,000 rubles ($3,200).
As per the outlet, on the day she handed the baby over, the 33-year-old issued the new parents a “waiver for the rights to the child”. In return, she received a small payment of $360.
