Selling Babies near the Altar of Razavi!

Iran Press News: Translation by Banafsheh Zand-Bonazzi
One of the superintendents of the Health and Welfare Organization in the Province of Khoraasaan, in an interview with the regime-run news agency, ILNA spoke of a new phenomenon in that province; mothers have taken to selling their newborn babies in the city of Mash'had. He said: "Some of the well-intentioned employees of the area hospitals as well as some of the corrupt hospital employees who are in cahoots with racketeers, run these baby-selling rings. The price for newborn babies varies from hospital to hospital; some mothers relinquish their newborns without laying eyes on their children in exchange for their hospital bills being paid.”
