The mother also stated that ab#rtion was not an option as it is no longer safe and hospitals have strict rules.

She further requested that authorities be notified when the baby is located.

"Hi, you might be wondering why I dumped my baby, don't wonder, just help her if you can or call authorities but don't judge me. I have spoken twice with social workers. They are delaying to assist. I know this looks bad but I had no option. The system is fragile and we can't even abort safely anymore. Hospitals have strict rules." the note read.

On arrival, Reaction Officers were pointed out the location of the discovery and handed over the child and the bag.

A female Officer and Medics were called to the scene and the child’s soaked diaper was changed.

The baby girl was then fed with a bottle of milk. Medics examined the infant aged approx three (3) months and found her to be in good health.
