'Baby yoga' video on Facebook draws activists' ire

London, June 6: A two-minute video clip on Facebook of a screaming baby being roughly and repeatedly plunged in a bucket of water has left child rights activists fuming. The film showed a woman in a kitchen, believed to be in Indonesia, repeatedly ducking a crying young baby into a tub of water, while holding the child upside down. The video spread around the world, with some people claiming it was an example of "baby yoga". But child rights activists, notably England's leading charity National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC), cried it was clear abuse. As the outrage grew, the video was taken down, possibly by the person who originally posted it.
