Woman Arrested For Abandoning Baby Boy, Will Be Charged On 30 Jul

Update (29 Jul): The police has arrested a 29-year-old Indonesian woman in relation to the case.

Babies are small, precious, and vulnerable. They should be placed in the care of their mothers so they can get the nutrition and protection they need.

Unfortunately, one baby boy looks to be abandoned.

Residents in Tai Keng Gardens – a housing estate near Upper Paya Lebar Road – found the infant on his own outdoors.
