With the help of YouTube videos, a 15-year-old woman in India has managed to deliver her baby on her own. But because she had kept the pregnancy a secret and now wanted to muffle the baby’s crying, she strangled the newborn girl.
The neighbors must not hear the crying, the police report. Because nobody knew about the pregnancy. A little later, the weakened teenager would have confided in her mother. She had met the child’s father through social media, but did not know his full name or address.
In India, sex before marriage is a big taboo, sex with minors is a criminal offense – even in consensual relationships. Again and again there are unsafe abortions outside hospitals that prove fatal to the mother-to-be. Such cases also occur.
