A tragic discovery was made on the afternoon of November 5, when the body of an infant was found in a trash bin at a condominium in Bo Win, Si Racha District, Chonburi Province. The discovery was reported to authorities at 14:20 by a waste collector, prompting an investigation by Lieutenant Thatchakorn Naranantha and a team of officers from Bo Win Police Station, alongside members of the Phiao Yiang Tai Foundation.

 

At the scene, officials found the remains of a male infant, estimated to have been born around 6 months into the mothers pregnancy, in a black trash bag at the condominium’s waste disposal area. The umbilical cord was still attached, and preliminary assessments suggest the infant had been deceased for at about 10 hours.

 

The waste collector who discovered the infant reported that he was sorting through the trash when he opened the black bag and found the baby’s body, wrapped in blue-and-white cloth. The infant’s head, legs, and feet were partially visible, prompting the worker to call over a colleague to confirm the distressing discovery.

 

Investigators are now working to gather additional information from CCTV, possible witnesses and other residents. The infant’s body has been sent for autopsy and identification in hopes of tracing those responsible for abandoning the child.
