Georgealbert Posted February 28 Posted February 28 Picture from responders. Police are investigating after the body of a newborn baby boy was discovered inside a cardboard box dumped in a rubbish bin in Pluak Daeng district, Rayong. The shocking discovery was made by a waste collector, who initially mistook the contents of the box for animal remains before realising it was a human infant. At 11:05 on 28 February, Pol. Lt. Chama Thongyu, an investigator from Pluak Daeng Police Station, was alerted to the incident by a local municipal waste collector from Map Yang Phon Subdistrict Administrative Organisation (SAO). Upon arrival at the scene, police officers, doctors from Pluak Daeng Hospital, and emergency responders found a decomposing baby boy wrapped in a plastic bag and towel, inside a cardboard box. The body, though still intact, showed early signs of decomposition and was covered in ants. Ms. Kusuma, the waste collector who discovered the body, described the harrowing moment she opened the box while sorting rubbish outside a rented apartment complex. “At first, I thought it was just an abandoned pet,” she said. “But when I unwrapped the plastic, I was horrified to see it was a newborn baby. Ants were crawling all over the body, so I tried to brush them off before immediately calling the authorities.” Initial examinations suggest that the baby had been dead for several days. Police are now reviewing CCTV footage from the area and surrounding streets in an attempt to identify who abandoned the infant. -- 2025-03-01 1

It might have been a teenage schoolgirl whose boyfriend abandoned her and her unborn baby and ran off before the baby was born. Why could you not wait to comment when further information becomes available, instead of jumping to a conclusion? Perhaps the mother is in urgent need of help and has nobody to turn to. She probably needs hospital attention which she cannot get. 1

At times young women in a relationship, having sex, all is going well, she and her partner make plans for the future......Sadly, only for the father to abandon her shortly after the birth of her baby. In the west the government would provide social security and welfare payments (thousands of dollars after the birth), garnish the fathers wages, the woman may be on maternity leave, she has income but sadly in Thailand this poor young woman (girl) has no money to support herself and baby. If the mother decides to keep her child without income she must leave her child with a guardian, go to work in the city but the minimum wage of around 12000 month is not enough to pay for accommodation, guardian, food, clothing, electricity, etc, now she finds herself working on Soi 6. Shame on Thailand for not providing for these young mothers. 1

I am a nobody, but a nobody that cares about other people. The real question is who are you? A nobody like me, but a nobody who doesn't seem to care about the realities of life or the feelings of other people. You also seem to be a person who jumps to any conclusion instantly without waiting for any further information to be released. 1 1
chickenslegs Posted March 15 Posted March 15 I guess we will never find out whether the baby was stillborn, died from neglect, or was killed.
