PHOTOS : Mexican Woman Forced To Give Birth On Hospital Lawn

Native Mexican Tribal Woman from the Mazatec tribe
forced to give birth to a baby outside the hospital which refused to help her.

A mother gave birth alone on a lawn at the entrance to a hospital because the staff had prohibited her access since she belonged to one of the minority Native Mexican Tribes . The mother, in full suffering, is photographed by a passerby and the picture is now circulating around the world .

While her poor husband tried to persuade the nurse severity of the condition of his wife, the young Irma Lopez stood a hundred meters outside the hospital to give birth to her third child. "I did not want to give birth like that. It was so ugly and extremely painful " , she told the Associated Press after she was questioned about this incident which became a national issue .

Following this case, the Government of Oaxaca , also announced the suspension of the director, Adrian René Cruz Cabrera (who is mestizo of spanish descent) of the medical center and launched an investigation within the institution in question to find out who gave the order to prohibit this modest torque of the northern mountains of the state for care .

Silvia Flores, the mayor of the town where then now-infamous medical center is located, told the site Clarin that it was the second time in a year that a woman in labor has given birth on the lawn: in July, another indigenous woman delivered a baby on the same grass patch
The majority of Mexicans belong to the mixed SPanish-Mestizo Latin descent who discriminate against the Indigenous Tribals, who are the original owners of the land, before the arrival of the colonist settlers.
