At a hospital in Harohalli, Karnataka's Ramnagar district, a newborn baby’s body was found in a toilet on the ground floor. The staff noticed the toilet was clogged and called cleaners and plumbers to fix it. At first, they thought the blockage was caused by cloth or trash, but they were shocked to discover it was the body of a newborn baby.

What happened in the hospital?

The police believe the baby was just one or two days old, and the incident likely happened on Wednesday night. The baby’s body was taken out carefully using tools normally used to clear blockages. This shocking discovery left the hospital’s doctors, staff, and nearby people very upset.

Who could be responsible?

The police think someone flushed the baby down the toilet to hide its birth. They are checking CCTV footage from the hospital to find out who is responsible. So far, no one has reported a missing newborn. The police believe the baby’s mother might be involved or that the baby was brought to the hospital from another place.

The baby’s body has been sent for an examination to find out the cause of death. The police are fully investigating the case. People are very upset about what happened and are asking for justice for the baby.
