A heartless mother who abandoned her baby girl in a food waste bin has been arrested. A girl who was left in the trash for 67 hours and was dramatically rescued by a passerby’s report is showing symptoms such as sepsis.
On the 23rd, Judge Lee Hyeong-geol of the Cheongju District Court issued an arrest warrant for Mr.
Person A is accused of throwing her baby girl into a food waste bin in front of a restaurant in Gagyeong-dong, Heungdeok-gu, Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do, around 8 am on the 18th. The child was discovered three days later, at around 3 am on the 21st, at the report of a resident passing by.
It is known that the reporter reported, “There was a naked child when I opened the lid to take it out after a cat crying inside the food waste bin.” When the firefighters arrived, the child was crying while moving his hands and feet in a trash can with a capacity of 10 liters. The child, whose umbilical cord was not dry, had a wound from the right face to the shoulder, and her consciousness and body temperature were normal. The child was immediately taken to a nearby hospital for treatment. A hospital official said, “The vital signs have improved compared to when I first came, but it was found in a very dangerous state and a lot of infectious bacteria are spreading. The police, who started the investigation, caught Mr. A on the morning of the 22nd based on a nearby closed circuit (CC) TV. A police official said, “At the time of discovery, there was almost no food waste in the food waste bin where the child was. The official added, “Unlike the food waste bins in residential areas that are collected every day, it was determined that this trash bin was not collected.” On the 23rd, Mr. A, who arrived at the court for the interrogation of the suspect (warrant substantive examination) before the arrest, was consistent in answering questions from reporters asking about the reason for abandoning the child. After investigating the exact circumstances of the incident, the police plan to send Mr. A to the prosecution.
