In Zimbabwe, babies are sometimes kidnapped for various reasons. This can include trafficking, where babies are sold or exploited, and ritualistic practices for certain beliefs. Kidnappers may also have financial motives, such as demanding ransom from the baby’s family. It’s important to remember that these cases are not common, and the government is committed to ensuring the safety of all citizens, especially children.
