IPOH: An 18-year-old student was detained for allegedly dumping her newborn baby.
State CID chief Senior Asst Comm (II) Ismail Yatim said a cleaning lady found the baby boy’s body in a hostel room of the institution of higher learning near here Wednesday.
“A roll call was then called by the hostel warden at noon to determine the baby’s mother,” he said.
The student gave herself away when the policemen, who were sent to the scene to investigate, noticed her pale face, said SAC (II) Ismail,
The student admitted to being the mother of the baby when the police questioned her, he said.
The baby’s remains were sent to Changkat Melintang Hospital for post-mortem, he added.
