Vong A Khin and Nguyen Thi Thuy Van in Long Thanh District, Dong Nai Province last Friday were arrested for attempting to sell their one-month-old son for VND10 million (US$500).
Previously, the couple asked Nguyen Van Dong, a street beggar, to help them sell their son and promised to pay him commission if he succeeded.
Dong then carried the newborn around Tan Mai 2 Market in Phuoc Tan Commune, Bien Hoa city and asked people if they were interested in buying the baby for VND10 million.
He offered to take any prospective buyer to Khin and Van to make legal documents.
On receiving the report from local people, Phuoc Tan’s police immediately arrested Dong, and Khin and Van who were waiting at the market’s entrance.
At the police station, Van said they were poor and wanted to sell their fourth son to have some money.
