In 2018, Indian authorities noticed that a baby had vanished from a home for unwed mothers. Surely, this was some sort of bureaucratic oversight as those babies were being sheltered by none other than Sister Koncilia, a disciple of Mother Teresa herself and part of the country's vast Missionaries of Charity care home network. Fortunately, it turned out that the baby had not gone missing. Instead, it had been sold like a black market piece of lion meat to the highest bidder.
When an inspection was launched into the home, its staffers were quick to confess their sins to the police. It seems that Sister Koncilia and a staff member named Anima Indwar had been systematically selling infants for illegal adoption, charging big sums to adoption candidates and masking them as hospital fees. The couple of Catholic Church human traffickers had already shipped off four babies, including a six-month year old boy for the low, low price of $730 and a nun's eternal soul.
Both Koncilia and Indwar were arrested and (since this is the very powerful Catholic Church we're talking) that's the last thing anyone ever heard of the case. If there's any silver lining, the Indian government does now plan on forcing all religion-backed childcare facilities to register with the authorities and abide by the same rules that non-religious adoption institutions must follow. Namely, to not auction off the wains to any scumbucket who puts a little extra in the weekly collection plate.
