'Poor' parents sell infant for snazzy mobile phone
A 21-year-old man and his 19-year-old girlfriend sold their illegitimate son for 2,500 yuan ($366) and bought a flashy mobile phone with that amount in Chongqing municipality.
The one-month-old infant was last week rescued from a trafficker who was about to sell off the baby for 10,000 yuan.
