A BABA'S CRY

'This is FM Coast to Desert, the Eyes and Ears of Swakopmund. Here follows a news flash. In yet another case of baby dumping in Namibia, the remains of a newborn baby was discovered in Mondesa, a suburb of Swakopmund.

'A passerby noticed the bloody clothes and body parts of a baby in a gift-wrapped box and alerted the police. The skull of the baby and the left arm were recovered, but the rest of the baby's torso remains missing. Community activists commented that there was a dramatic rise in incidences of abortions and the dumping of newborn babies in Namibia.'
