A foster mum who rescued orphans from war-torn Ukraine has gone on trial for torture, sexual abuse and letting paedophiles pay to rape children in her care.

A court in the Polish city of Poznan has heard that Ukrainian Svetlana Plyushko regularly assaulted the children, forced them to put soiled nappies in their mouths and eat vomit.

It also heard that the 53-year-old allegedly sexually abused the 10 children aged between 4 and 16 and forced them to take drugs before inviting around local paedophiles who paid to abuse them.

Citing one example, prosecutor Aneta Chamczyńska-Penkala told the court: 'Together and in agreement with unidentified men, making it a permanent source of income, she handed over a minor to them in order to force her to have sexual intercourse.'

Local journalist Piotr Żytnicki from the respected Gazeta Wyborcza newspaper reported: 'They held her by the hair and raped her, while [Svetlana] stood in the doorway with the phone in her hand and counted the time.

'She counted if 20 minutes had passed. These men probably paid for those 20 minutes. The children said, "Mum didn't save us".'

A child psychiatrist added that when she interviewed the children they were 'scared. They sat with their hands on their knees, heads down, no eye contact.

'They were pale and very emaciated.

'The five-year-old weighed 11 kg. The condition of the teeth was bad. I've never seen such decay.

'This was not negligence that arose in a few weeks.'
