Two months premature, but baby survives
Third person may have been present
TWO teenage girls snatched another teenager's unborn baby from her womb in a crude caesarean operation, Colombian newspaper El Tiempo reported.
The two unnamed girls, aged 14 and 16, assaulted Maria Amparo Rivera Girata, 18, in the small town of Duitama, northern Colombia, on Monday.
According to El Tiempo, the pair held a knife to Ms Girata's throat and tied her up, before cutting her uterus open and removing the infant. Ms Girata, who was seven months pregnant, was later found still conscious with severe abdomen injuries.
The two girls were arrested with the baby, who survived the ordeal, soon after.
The 16-year-old suspect reportedly miscarried during a previous pregnancy and plotted to steal Ms Girata's infant to replace her own, in order to stop her boyfriend finding out.
Ernesto Giraldo, head of Boyaca hospital's intensive care unit, told El Tiempo that it was possible a third person with knowledge of caesarean surgery was present.

"It's remarkable that these two girls could have conducted this surgery without injuring other organs close to the uterus," he said.
"All the more if you bear in mind that the victim was supposedly awake and struggling, trying to prevent them from removing her child."
Ms Girata was in a critical condition overnight in hospital and her two month premature baby boy is said to be recovering satisfactorily in an incubator.
My comment:
Unbelievable!
Teenagers nowadays do such thing!
Pity the victim. She is awake while the cruel surgery is being carried out by only two little girls!
Well, a third person may guide them throughout the process. How dare the teenagers are! What would be the society's reaction towards the two little girls? Unforgiveness? A second chance? They are still 14 and 16 years old...
Well, what cause this incident to happen?
I guess there is a lack of parental guidance and a lack of LOVE. Peer pressure leads to the problem as well. The only way the teenagers thought of is to get other's baby to replace hers. There are other ways to solve the problem faced, but may be they weren't dare to bring this topic to their parents, plus the pressure given by the guy, they end up making this mistake.
MISCARRY-is to give birth to a baby before it is fully developed and able to live. The girl lose her baby, thus she was struggle to get her baby back. She made a wrong decision, but what had contributed to her fault?!
What is your opinion?
Really unbelievable... I really no idea about their thinking. What cause this incident to happen?
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you, Fei Wen. Lack of parental guidance, lack of Love and peer pressure are the factors. However, I would like to touch the peer pressure here because i talked about this with my friends this morning.
Friends,
they can be good,
they can be bad;
they can lead you to success,
they can spoil your future.
Friends are important to teenagers like us. We need them. We need them to help us when we are down. We need friends to advice us when we are in trouble. We need them to share our happiness too. We need them to accompany us when we feel lonely.
However, friends are danger to us. They can lead us to the dark way when we are unconscious. They can guide us to those bad habits such as smoking. They can spoil our bright future too.
Ya, we need those good friends who can lead us to success but not the bad friends. So, we should be careful when we make friends.
Perhaps the two girls are not as lucky as i am. They do not have friends to guide them, advice them and lead them to the right way.
FRIENDS, thank you.
Friends are important. I can't live without friends. I know something call PEER SUPPORT from friends. Friends give HAPPINESS to me^^... Without friends, I am no longer Flying Kiss.
ReplyDeleteThanks you my friends. Everyone of you is part of me. Thanks you~~~~
