AKIPRESS.COM - A baby boy who was born with massive bulging eyes and only holes in place of his nose died as his desperate parents waited for a miracle to save him, The Mirror reported.

The unnamed baby, who also had no ears, passed away a day after he was born at home to mother Karishma in Aligarh, a remote village in Uttar Pradesh, northern India.

The shocked mother had not breastfed the child as he kept 'staring at her' all the time.

Instead his heartbroken parents had attempted to spoonfeed him milk as villagers flocked to their home to catch a glance of the 'alien'.

Karishma said: "He was breathing properly and he was healthy. He had healthy limbs but his face was not formed properly.

"I was so shocked that I could not dare breastfeed him. We had given him milk with a spoon.

"He was doing fine and slept but did not wake up next morning. There was no movement he had not even cried. It was around 4am next morning."

The boy born to Karishma and her husband Arshad, who also have a two-year-old daughter, had been touted as an alien by villagers because of his mysterious looks.
