A young Chinese couple are facing criminal punishment for "selling" their infant daughter and using the proceeds to buy an Apple iPhone.

Shanghai prosecutors have brought a case against them for human trafficking after they illegally put their third child up for adoption online and accepted money for the baby

According to Investigators,the mother, whose full name was not given, used the money to buy an iPhone, high-end sports shoes and other goods.

The couple told police that they wanted the girl to have a better upbringing than they could afford, since they already had two children.

"Giving away the child was not for obtaining benefits, but giving the child better guarantees".

An official of the prosecutor's office handling the case expressed worry over "sensationalism" surrounding the affair but declined to comment further. (AP)
