i know this sounds hilarious but it actually happened in pakistan ,a TV show where babies are to be given to the winning participants.
According to CNN "Plumbing new depths in the battle for television ratings, abandoned babies are being given out as prizes on a controversial prime-time game show in Pakistan".
TV host Aamir Liaquat Hussain presented baby girls to two unsuspecting couples during his show, which is broadcasted live for 7-hours a day, during the month of Ramadan.
"I was really shocked at first. I couldn't believe we were being given this baby girl," said Suriya Bilqees, now a mother of a 2-weeks old. "I was extremely happy."
Another baby, a boy, is due to be given to another couple at some point in the coming days.
A Girl's World: From London to Pakistan
The show's host has been described as a religious scholar, TV megastar and even a sex symbol.
His heady mix of religion and entertainment is often criticized.
"At Christmas there's Santa Claus to give everyone gifts, it's important for Christians.
For us Ramadan is a really special time so it's really important to make people happy and reward them," he said.
