Picture of three-year-old boy 'snorting cocaine' sparks PUBLIC OUTRAGE

A three-year-old boy was seemingly photographed snorting cocaine, with the image then uploaded onto Facebook.

The image was uploaded onto social media with the caption: "Mum and dad’s little junkie". It shows him looking directly into the camera, ready to sniff a white, powdery substance. Social media users demanded that the child should be taken into care according to Metro UK
However the family, from the small village of Sindel in eastern Bulgaria’s Varna Province, assured users it was just a joke.

She claims that the image was taken as a joke but then uploaded onto social media by her 13-year-old daughter.

Mrs Nuri said: "My mother first saw the [picture of the] children and called me. I couldn’t have done such a thing, I don’t even know how to write.

Her daughter, who uploaded the photo, says the family joke around with taking photos like the controversial image often.

She said: "I was only joking, I got the idea from Facebook. "I have never seen real drugs. I once saw a woman on Facebook making lines with flour and then snorting it." Reports have it that child services are investigating
