MANILA: The babies of 13 Philippine women pardoned and sent home by Cambodia after being convicted and jailed over an outlawed surrogate motherhood scheme may be put up for adoption, the government said on Monday.
Ten pregnant Filipinas and three others with babies flew home to Manila on Sunday, three days after being pardoned by the Cambodian king, which nullified their four-year jail terms. “The Cambodian government does not want the sale of the babies to those who transacted with our compatriots to be consummated,” Justice Undersecretary Nicholas Felix Ty said in an interview on state television on Monday.
