According to worldnewsdailyreport.com, between June 2016 and March 2017, a total of 86 women who had paid 50,000 yuán ($7,700) to be inseminated with sperm from “candidates carefully selected from the Chinese elite” were instead fertilized with swine semen.

It further reported that only 4 of these women actually got pregnant, and all of them miscarried before the end of their pregnancies.

The horrible act came to light when one of the aborted fetuses was so deformed that a doctor who saw it demanded an autopsy. The autopsy report then revealed that the embryo was part human and part animal.

The incident sparked a lot of controversy and a police investigation was initiated, leading to the discovery of an unusual fraud involving the Rhinoceros Horn Fertility Clinic and six of its employees.

They discovered that the clinic was purchasing pig semen from farmers in a nearby village and using it to fertilize its clients.

Police investigation of the clinic’s dozens of refrigerated containers revealed the animal semen labeled as “platinum quality” and sold at a higher price than “regular quality” human semen.
