Santo Domingo.- The National Council for Children and Adolescents (Conani) reported on Friday morning that it rescued the girl who was being abused by her mother in San Francisco de Macorís and the mother is being sought with an arrest warrant to bring her to justice.
Conani says that the minor, who is seen in a video posted on social media being mistreated by her mother Yubelkys Paulino, has already been handed over to her father’s family.
In a statement posted on its profile on the social network X, formerly Twitter, Conani details that the Office of the Prosecutor for Children and Adolescents of San Francisco de Macorís is already addressing the case.

“Regarding the woman seen in a video abusing a girl, we inform that the case is already being addressed by the Children and Adolescents Prosecutor’s Office of San Francisco de Macorís and CONANI,” the statement said.
He also said that “an arrest warrant has already been issued against the attacker and the girl has been provisionally handed over to her paternal family.”
Yubelkys Paulino tells the girl that she will charge her for the things that her partner and father of the infant does to her, which has provoked reactions of rejection among the citizens who have seen the video.
