KAKATA, MARGIBI COUNTY, LIBERIA-Police in Kakata, Margibi County, are investigating a twenty-nine year old woman for allegedly attempting to sell her seven-year-old step son.

Patience PAYE, a residence of Johnsonville, Montserrado County, was arrested in Kakata after she attempted selling her boyfriend’s son identified as Jacob Kamara for fifteen-thousand United States Dollars.

Suspect Paye told police that she decided to sell the little boy to recoup some of her ten-thousand US Dollars the boy’s father has lavished over two years of the their relationship.

Kakata based Classic FM quotes Patience Paye as saying she invested ten-thousand USD after the boy’s father, Morris Kamara, had promised to marry her.
