“I have been robbed of my son. It was around 6pm when my sister visited me. I was practising my salonist skills. She came to see the child. We sat in the living room. The child was sleeping in the bedroom, while we sat in the living room, catching up with my sister.
When the baby woke up, I picked him up and took him out of his crib. I changed him, breastfed him and then put him to bed again. When my sister wanted to leave and asked me to see her out, I brought the baby to the living room as we set out,” she said.
On her way back, Gaspa met her husband, who immediately asked her where their baby was.
