The East African Standard has investigated trafficking in children and babies in Kenya. The Standard investigation team infiltrated the Nairobi operations of a syndicate operating in cahoots with a few unscrupulous staff of the largest maternity hospital in the country - Pumwani Maternity Hospital in Nairobi's Eastlands. The baby thieves steal new-borns then present the new mothers with a body and inform them that their baby died shortly after birth. Clients for new-born babies, the investigations established, include well to do women unable to conceive, street women posing as poverty-stricken new mothers, jealous relatives and Satanists.
