Why am I posting a picture of babies?
Because these four, whose ages range from three months to two years, are on trial for "looting and criminal damage" in Bangladesh.

The magistrate in the southern city of Chittagong said the case did not appear to be genuine - but the truth would emerge in a police report.

Anyone can file criminal cases in Bangladesh, and the procedure is frequently used to harass people.
The magistrate, Ali Noor, told reporters that he had been "a bit surprised" to see such young children in his court.
Bail has been granted at $50 per child.

Relatives said the allegations stemmed from a land dispute with a neighbour.
