Eight-months pregnant Mexican woman is found dead with newborn cut out of her womb before her baby is recovered alive: Cops detain man and woman ‘who was unable to have children herself’
- Rosa Isela went to meet a woman who had offered to provide her baby clothes
- Her lifeless body was found dumped in the town of Medellin de Bravo in Mexico
- A newborn baby was then discovered with two people believed to be the killers
A pregnant Mexican woman died after she was cut open by two assailants who stole her unborn baby, authorities said Monday.
Rosa Isela Castro Vazquez, 20, was eight-months pregnant when she was kidnapped by two suspects who cut the baby out of her womb and dumped her body in Medellin del Bravo, in the Mexican state of Veracruz.
Police arrested the alleged perpetrators after discovering a newborn baby in their possession, the attorney general’s office in the eastern state of Veracruz said in a statement.
They allegedly sliced open the victim to extract the fetus because the woman attacker was unable to have children herself, an official linked to the investigation told AFP on condition of anonymity.

Ministerial Police arrested Gonzalo “N” and Veronica ‘N’ as alleged perpetrators of the crime of disappearance committed by individuals.’ ‘N’ is often used in Mexico to obfuscate a suspect’s full name due to local privacy laws.
The suspects, a man and a woman, appeared before a judge on Monday accused of kidnapping and femicide.
The victim was lured to her death through social media with a promise of clothes for her baby, relatives told local media, which said that it was the third case of its kind in recent years.
Rosa Isela had gone to meet a woman who had reportedly contacted her on social media to offer her baby clothes, according to her sister, whose name was not made public.
Footage of the meeting between Rosa Isela and the mysterious woman she met near the airport reportedly shows the woman arriving late and looking around nervously while talking to the victim.
Rosa Isela is then said to have got into a vehicle, never to be seen alive again. Two suspects were detained after the authorities launched an investigation.
