A Chinese mother who sold her two daughters illegally to compensate for mounting debts was caught on camera counting the cash in front of one of the oblivious little girls.
The woman Long Baoxin had two girls in her care - Su Xiaochun, 4, and Su Xiaoqiu, 2, (not their real names) - according to Huanqiu.com, an affiliation of People's Daily Online.
Long Baoxin, who hails from Heng County in central China, attempted to traffick her daughters separately for a combined 32,000 Yuan (£3,500) in order to pay off gambling debts. The trafficker is now on trial for her crimes after the father of the children alerted authorities.

Horrific story: Long Baoxin sold Su Xiaoqiu (right) to a buyer (above, in white) at a train station in Binyang County in December 2014
Scary: Some of her illegal gains were used to pay off the debts, and used the remainder to continue to gamble
Before she fell into her money-spinning addiction, she and her partner of seven years, identified by his surname Su, had funds to enjoy a frugal life.
Things all changed when Long Baoxin started gambling and fell into debt.
After an argument over money, the couple separated and Long Baoxin left with the children.
According to reports by Sohu TV, Su initially thought that she would return after a cooling off period but when she still hadn't come back six months later, he decided to pay her a visit.
It was only then that the father of two discovered that his daughters have gone missing and informed the police.
Police discovered that after going broke, Long Baoxin sold Su Xiaoqiu to a buyer, identified by her surname Wei, at a train station in Binyang County in December 2014 at a price of 19,000 Yuan or $3,000 (£2,070).
The mother used some of her illegal gains to pay off the debts, and used the remainder to continue to gamble until all the money had been used up again.
Horror: In January 2015, Long Baoxin agreed for her remaining daughter Su Xiaochun to be sold off to a different buyer
Justice done: Long Baoxin faced the Heng County People's Procuratorate to answer for her illegal dealings
In January 2015 in Heng, Long Baoxin agreed for her other daughter Su Xiaochun to be sold off to a different buyer, also identified by her surname Wei ,for 13,000 Yuan (just over £1,400) before using the money for the same purposes.
A horrifying video clip, taken by the buyer during the transaction, showed the mother counting the money right in front of the little girl.
The girl was seen helping her count the cash, completely oblivious to the fact that she is being sold.
Three months later in April 2015, police officers discovered the transactions that had taken place and were able to rescue both of the children and take them to safety.
Heng County People's Procuratorate recently ruled that Long Baoxin made concious efforts to obtain illegal profits and violated criminal law in relation to the trafficking of children.
She had admitted to the charges but awaits sentencing.
Some remorse? The mother seemed to break down in tears as she discussed the details of her callous crimes
