Orphaned infants are being given away as prizes on a TV game
show in Pakistan, prompting both condemnation and praise of the show and the
organization behind the scheme.
Pakistan’s “Aman Ramazan,” airing for seven hours a day
during the month of Ramadan (which ends August 7) in front of a live studio
audience of 500-plus, has been likened to “The Price Is Right,” awarding prizes
such as refrigerators, microwaves and motorcycles to people who correctly
answer questions about the Quran. Now host Aamir Liaquat Hussain has been able
to add babies to that list of rewards, so far giving away two infant girls to
two unsuspecting couples, CNN reports.
