A two-week-old baby was rescued in Narok, Kenya on Thursday, September
1, after being dumped into a 30-feet pit latrine by the mother. Police
are looking for the teenager who was said to have fled the scene.
Speaking to the media, some slaughterhouse workers said a woman,
believed to be in her late teens was seen carrying a wrapped item while
heading towards a nearby toilet. She came out empty-handed. After a
short while, they decided to check the toilet after hearing the sound
of a crying baby.
Upon
checking, they found a baby wrapped in a plastic bag. They decided to
inform the local police when their efforts to remove it from the pit
latrine failed. When the police arrived, they worked hand in hand with
area residents to save the infant.
They hooked a long rod on the swaddle to pull out the baby alive. The
infant had a piece of clothe tightened around its neck and the head was
bleeding, a confirmation that the mother had intended to kill it.
The baby was rushed to Narok County Referral Hospital for treatment.
