An Indian nurse attends to Japanese baby

An Indian nurse attends to Japanese baby Manji Yamada as she lies in a ward of The Arya Hospital in Jaipur on August 6, 2008. The future of a 12-day-old baby girl born to an Indian surrogate mother hung in legal limbo after the Japanese couple who planned to take her home divorced. Manji Yamada was born last month after eggs from an Indian donor were fertilised using the Japanese man's sperm and implanted in the womb of the surrogate Indian mother. Her biological father split from his wife after the fertilisation process and his former spouse no longer wants the baby. In the absence of a surrogacy law in India, the child -- who is an Indian citizen -- will have to be adopted by her Japanese father Ikufumi Yamada, 45. But Indian law does not allow the adoption of a girl by a single father, lawyers and doctors said. AFP PHOTO/STR (Photo credit should read STR/AFP via Getty Images)
