Brazilian 'parent' sells baby for £260 on website because 'it won't let me sleep and I have to work to survive'




A baby in Brazil has been offered for sale for £267 (R$1000) on a website because the parent claims it will not them sleep.

Brazilian police have launched an investigation into the advert, which was posted on Tuesday on the OLX classified website.

The advert features a baby of only a few months old dressed in a blue outfit, alongside the caption: 'Cries a lot and did not let me sleep and I have to work to survive.'

The author, who does not disclose whether they are a man or a woman, provides a contact name and number for the city of Aparecida de Goiânia in the central state of Goias.

The advert was active for more than 12 hours on the site before the company withdrew it for breaching the terms and conditions by advertising ‘inappropriate content’.
