Pregnant South African women are deliberately drinking large quantities of alcohol to harm their unborn babies in a bid to earn more welfare money, it has been claimed.
Expectant mothers living in the Eastern Cape, one of the poorest areas in South Africa, are bingeing on a 'moonshine' type drink which contains battery acid - with some drinking up to five and six bottles a day.
It has been reported they do it to claim a disability benefit from the government - using their disabled children as a source of income. The addictive milky brown brew is made from yeast, water and battery acid. It is sold in illegal drinking dens called 'shebeens'.
