CLA six-month-old baby died in Cochabamba, Bolivia, after being allegedly sold by her mother for 150 bolivianos ($20,000 Chilean pesos) to a couple who transported her for street begging. The case came to light when the child was admitted to a health center without vital signs. Authorities investigated and discovered that the couple had moved the infant from Santa Cruz to Cochabamba for exploitation. During the investigation, four other children aged between 8 and 14 were rescued from the couple’s residence, suggesting a broader network involved in child trafficking for begging. The couple has been detained, and authorities are investigating potential charges related to human trafficking and the baby's death.
