Girl, 10, 'Raped By Own Brother' Gives Birth To Baby Boy In Colombia

A 10-year-old girl who got pregnant after she was allegedly raped by her older brother has given birth to a baby boy.

The child, who cannot be named, had a caesarean section in a hospital in Florencia, Colombia.

Both the little boy and his young mum are reportedly doing well. The alleged rape happened in Puerto Leguizamo, Putumayo, where the girl lived with her parents.

According to local media, the girl's parents did not want to report their son to the local authorities.

Hospital director Camilo Diaz told local media: "According to the information we have received from the police, the minor became pregnant after she was sexually abused by a family member, apparently her brother." The investigation into the claims of child abuse continues.
