An Asian woman was found dead in a deserted place in Ajman while her new born baby was alive but suffering from dehydration.

Police arrested two women and two men of the same nationality in connection with the victim’s death, newspapers said on Thursday.

The defendants told police that the woman had come to the UAE to work as a housemaid but absconded later. She was then given home by the four, who managed to get her a part time job and let her live with them.

The victim later got pregnant after an illicit affair and was delivered by the two women sharing the house.

But she suffered from hemorrhage, prompting them to take her to a Dubai hospital, where she was treated and allowed to return home with them.

“On the way, the woman died…they took her body and dumped it along with the baby behind a medical centre in Ajman…the two women and two men then fled to Abu Dhabi but were later arrested,” Emirat Alyoum daily said.

It quoted doctors at Sheikh Khalifa hospital in Ajman as saying the condition of the baby boy has improved and would remain in hospital for now.
