Filipino women and their babies released from Cambodian prison after surrogate mother scheme

Credited from: SCMP

  • Cambodia has pardoned 13 Filipino women jailed for attempting to become surrogate mothers, a practice deemed illegal.
  • These women were among 24 foreign detainees arrested in September and sentenced in December for attempted human trafficking.
  • The women and their three babies have returned to Manila and are now in a government shelter for trafficking victims.
  • The Cambodian court imposed a four-year prison sentence based on evidence suggesting an intention to sell babies for money.
  • The practice of surrogacy in Cambodia was banned in 2016, yet demand persists, particularly from couples in China.
