Separated at Birth, Reunited by Tiktok

Available for over a year

Until two years ago 21-year-olds Amy and Ano had no idea they were identical twins. Separated at birth, they found each other by chance - thanks to Tiktok. They are among thousands of people in Georgia who have recently discovered that they were stolen from their parents at birth and sold. It’s believed the black market in baby trafficking operated for decades from the 1950s when the country was part of the Soviet Union and getting worse in the 1990s during the turmoil that followed independence. In this episode of Five Minutes On, Fay Nurse speaks to Amy and Ano and other families ripped apart by this scandal.
