Mum 'treated like criminal' over baby birthmark
The mother of a six-month-old baby said she was treated "like a criminal" after her son's birthmarks were mistaken for bruising.
Laxmi Thapa's son was born with blue spot, blue-grey markings common on babies with brown or black skin.
After being referred to a hospital in Basingstoke, she was arrested when medical staff and police followed procedures for suspected child abuse.
Laxmi has been sharing her story with 麻豆社 reporter Sophia Seth.
