A man accused of trying to sell his
infant daughter online has admitted to posting the advert, which offered the
girl in exchange for 5,500 dollars, the police said on Monday. The 28-year-old
man admitted to posting the ad on eBay Kleinanzeigen, a popular online platform
for buying and selling household items.
“The man said that it was intended as a joke,’’
the police said. The man and his wife, who are being investigated on suspicion
of human trafficking, initially denied posting the ad, it went up late on
Tuesday, prompting employees at the website to contact police. Police said that
the family that posted the ad was refugees, without giving details as to their
nationality.
