9-day-old baby abused at postnatal care facility in South Korea for not drinking formula

A staff member in his 50s working at a postpartum care facility in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, South Korea, has been referred to prosecutors on suspicion of abusing a nine-day-old baby.
According to the South Korean news agency MBN on the 12th, allegations emerged that a 50-year-old employee at a postpartum care facility in Seoul abused a 9-day-old baby boy in April.
Security cameras inside the building in April captured the child assaults in their entirety. A woman sat down holding a newborn baby and hit the baby hard enough to twist its head.
He also pushed the face of another child lying on the floor, and without looking at the baby, he lifted it up without supporting its neck. The baby's mother reportedly happened to witness the abuse while passing through the hallway.
During the investigation, it was also found that Mr. A had treated the baby roughly when the baby stopped drinking much of the formula.
The baby's father said, "When he was nine days old, he was shot through a window.
"I watched as they twisted the child like they were wringing out laundry, and when they lifted him up they did so roughly, without supporting his neck," he said, describing the situation at the time.
He continued, "I was holding the baby's neck with my left hand and feeding it with my right hand, and I saw him shaking his left hand very violently.
"That's right," she said, voicing her frustration. The parents filed a complaint against A with the police in May. A has now left the postpartum care facility. The postpartum care facility said, "It was not something that happened every day, but a personal deviation.
In response to a question from reporters, "What is the matter with Mr. A?", he avoided answering immediately, saying, "I don't think it's something I can decide." On the 21st of last month, the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency sent Mr. A to the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office on suspicion of child abuse under the Child Welfare Act.
