The bond between a mother and her child can truly be understood by few, and some people go beyond all boundaries to ensure that children aren’t deprived of love and care only a mother can provide. A policewoman in China has won hearts for her warm gesture which has gone viral on social media.

Officer Lina Hao is a mother herself and was in-charge of looking after the baby of a suspect who was standing trial in a courtroom. When the baby kept crying in the premises, the officer asked permission from the mother and went on to feed the baby in a corner.

She said she could feel how anxious the child’s mother must be since she is a new mother too. The only thing on her mind was to comfort the child in any way possible.

The baby’s mother is one of 34 people sentenced to prison in a bogus fundraising ring in China and couldn’t help but cry as she was touched by the police officer’s actions.
