JUST IN: Woman steals a new born baby just one day after the baby was born.
A shocking incident occurred in Juba, where a woman stole a newborn baby just one day after the child was born, while still in the care of his mother.
According to reports, a woman gave birth to a healthy baby boy on a Thursday morning. Shortly after, her female neighbor visited and inquired, "When did you give birth?" The new mother responded, "Yesterday."
The neighbor then suggested to the womanโs husband that he should go out and find something to support his wife and their newborn. Without suspecting anything, the husband quickly left to find work.
Seizing the opportunity, the neighbor prepared a meal for the new mother but secretly laced it with a sleeping pill. After eating, the exhausted mother fell into a deep sleep. Taking advantage of the situation, the neighbor stole the newborn baby. She then took the baby to Juba Teaching Hospital, falsely claiming that she had given birth at home and was there to have the baby vaccinated under the name "Shakush."
After the vaccination, the woman called her husband, a soldier, and informed him that she had given birth to their son. Her husband, unaware of the truth, came to the hospital and took them home.
When the real mother woke up, she discovered her baby was missing and began to cry in distress. Neighbors gathered around, and one mentioned seeing the female neighbor carrying something that resembled a baby. Alarmed, they rushed to the police to report the incident.
Later that evening, the police found the neighbor at her home with the missing newborn. When confronted, the neighbor claimed the baby as her own, but the real mother immediately disputed her claim.
To resolve the situation, both women were taken to the hospital, where they were asked to breastfeed the baby. It was quickly revealed that the real mother was the one who could breastfeed, exposing the neighborโs lie, as she was not lactating.
