New Delhi: Technology is of great help for the people in today’s times and for a lot of things, people fall back on the platforms like YouTube that offer tutorials for a lot of activities like make-up, dressing up, usage of electronic gadgets, etc. However sometimes, technological help and tutorials may backfire sometimes and that is exactly what happened in Kerala’s Thiruvananthapuram. A 36-year-old woman and her newborn baby lost their lives because the baby’s man forced his wife to have a home birth, assisted by the YouTube tutorial videos. Here’s what happened…

Husband Forces Pregnant Wife To Deliver Using YT Tutorials

As mentioned earlier, a Kerala man Nayas forced his 36-year-old wife, Sameera Beevi from Karakkamandapam in Memom, to deliver her baby at home, with the help of the YouTube tutorials. He wanted his wife to deliver their baby with the help of acupuncture, as mentioned in videos on YouTube.

Woman-Baby Die In Tragic Accident

The husband’s insistence led to extensive bleeding and when the woman was taken to a hospital, she was declared dead, and so was the baby. The woman’s husband has been taken into police custody by the police of Nemom and investigation is underway.

According to the reports, the couple have a total of three kids and Sameera was the man’s second wife; his first wife and their daughter who is studying acupuncture, assisted Sameera when she went into labour. However around two and a half hours later, Sameera started bleeding profusely and eventually fainted. She was then taken to a private hospital in an ambulance where on being examined, she was declared dead by the doctors.

Reports also say that last month, the couple was suggested to visit doctors by a lot of people but Nayas outrightly refused saying that they would have their child’s delivery at home, by watching tutorial videos on YouTube.
