Baby dumped in RAK waste bin cries herself to rescue

An Asian worker stumbled across a newborn girl dumped inside a public waste bin after he was attracted by her cries and police said her mother is an Asian housemaid.

The infant was found inside a black garbage plastic bag which was dumped in the big waste bin, they said, quoting CID chief Major Walid Kanfash.

“The Asian man was passing near the bin when he heard a baby crying. He quickly called his boss, who pulled out the plastic bag and found the girl,” he said.

He told the Arabic language daily Al Bayan that the baby was taken to hospital and doctors later reported that she was in a good health.

He said police arrested an Asian maid after her Emirati employer reported she could have been pregnant following a relationship with a man.

“During interrogation, she confessed to the relationship with the man, who fled just before she was about to deliver,” he said.
