    I don’t even want to think about what they’re doing with a baby especially considering the price paid for them.

      I’m guessing that it is just people who really want kids but cannot conceive on their own. Some people can get really desperate went it comes to having this, combine that with an apparent lack for moral standards, and this happens.

      Probably just getting it for couples that can’t conceive. It is never something interesting like using the baby souls to open the Gate of Ral’l and summon Klura who shall reign a thousand years of darkness.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The allegations about Xiangyang Jianqiao hospital first came to light on 6 November via a Weibo user by the name of Shangguan Zhengyi, who describes himself as an “anti-trafficking volunteer”.

    Shangguan posted a series of claims about the hospital’s director, Ye Youzhi, whom he accused of colluding “with online intermediaries” to sell birth certificates for 96,000 yuan (£10,750).

    Shangguan, who says he worked undercover for the hospital for a year, also accused Ye of brokering the sale of babies and facilitating surrogacy arrangements, which are illegal in China.

    After Shangguan publicised his allegations, Chinese media reported that Ye, 55, a gynaecologist and obstetrician, has been involved in a number of medical scandals.

    During the era of the one-child policy, a cultural preference for boys led to baby girls being abandoned or sold through underground networks.

    In September, Yu Huaying, a woman in Guizhou province, was sentenced to death after being found guilty of abducting and trafficking 11 children in the 1990s.
