A 43-year-old woman, Stephany Isaksson Bassey, an indigene of Akwa Ibom State living in Sweden, has been arrested for being in a possession of a 2-month-old baby boy, who a DNA test revealed not to be her child and clearly indicated that there is no biological relationship between them.
Bassey was nabbed at the the Embassy of Sweden in Nigeria on the suspicion that the child she came with was not her own.
According to the Director, Public Enlightenment of National Agency for Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, Josiah Emerole,:
midwife in Uyo who she said told her that the fat in her body was too much that a scan and other medical and scientific examinations would not be able to penetrate to detect the baby therein.
It was in such a ramshackle facility in Uyo that she claimed to have delivered the baby naturally. However, she never fed the baby who is 3 months old now with her breast milk even for one day.
A DNA has been conducted on the woman and the child and the result which we have received clearly indicated that there is no biological relationship between the woman and the baby.
Following this result we have arrested her so she could tell us the source of the baby. The baby is being taken care of by our caregivers while investigations continue.”
