Świebodzin: How was Helenka's extreme starvation?
My mother dealt with little Helenka. She once ran a boutique in Świebodzin, but since she closed him, she devoted herself to taking care of her daughter. The girl did not send to the nursery. The father is a retired policeman. He was a district in Zielona Góra, but he ended his service two years ago.
Helenka was hospitalized in mid -December 2024. She was brought by her parents, claiming that she stopped eating. However, the child's sight scared doctors. It weighed only 8 kg and was extremely starved. Doctors notified the police. It turned out that the child only took grapes and mother's milk.
The prosecutor's office initiated an investigation and parents were accused of neglecting a child in a way that could lead to serious health problems threatening her life. This crime is punishable by three to 20 years imprisonment.
