Babies are being illegally offered for sale in Bulgaria with the promise of smuggling them abroad, an undercover BBC News team has discovered.
A self-confessed human trafficker in the resort city of Varna showed off toddlers with a selling price of 60,000 euros (£40,000) each.
For an extra fee, he said he would personally deliver a child to London.
Bulgaria is investigating the findings of the BBC sting, which was stopped before any children were actually sold.
"Harry", as the smuggler called himself, was led to believe that the baby was destined for a shady British businessman whose criminal record barred him from legal adoption routes.
He never asked what would happen to the child who, he said, could be smuggled to London via routes he had used in the past to traffic prostitutes.
this is so disgusting

Very true, this is so sad. But it just shows what type of world we do live in.
This must go on in other countries too.

Plain and simple

These people dont care how they make some money, wether they be selling drugs, kids, women for prostitution, they dont care, as long as they are making their money.

Just like the US government did on 9/11, brilliantly explained by Loose Change.
If there is money involved, people dont care about lives
