A body of a newborn baby was on
Monday found by City of Cape Town
drainage workers in New Rest in Gugulethu.
The workers were busy cleaning the
sewerage line when the discovery of the baby happened.
Police Spokesperson Thembinkosi
Kinana said the police opened a case of concealment of death.
He added that no one has been
arrested at this stage and anyone with information in connection to this is
requested to contact the SAPS crime stop number 0860010111.
Meanwhile Western Cape MEC of Social
Development Albert Fritz said the increase of dumping of babies is becoming a
big concern for government.

mothers who do not want their babies anymore.
He appealed to young mothers to go to any of the 35 local offices for
help.
