Police are investigating a case of concealment of birth, after the Athlone Waste Transfer Station alerted them of the body of a one month old baby boy that had been caught in the waste rubbish conveyor.
The body was naked and decomposed, and is currently at the Salt River Mortuary.
Police spokesperson, Inspector Makapula, says the baby is believed to have been aborted, and brought in with the waste delivered from the trucks.
Langa police urge anyone with information who can assist with the identification of the body or information to contact Detective Constable Mahlanza from Langa police at (021) 695 8010.
An inquest docket has been opened.
