The Obuasi Police are on the heels of a supposed ‘wicked’ mother who, allegedly, dumped her day-old baby by the roadside at Obuasi in the Ashanti Region.

The little and innocent baby was found wrapped in a white cloth and placed in a brown paper box, which was abandoned at a nearby bush by the roadside at Kwabenakwa near Obuasi.

Some members of the community who claimed they found the baby abandoned in the dirty surroundings around 3pm on September 7, 2022, immediately alerted the Obuasi police who rushed to the place to check.

According to a police report, which has been sighted by the DAILY GUIDE, the police found the abandoned baby, who was already dead, by the roadside and sent the body to the morgue for autopsy.

Police preliminary investigations indicated that perhaps the mother intentionally decided to dump the baby in the dirty environment to die. The police are doing everything possible to arrest the mother.

“On 7/09/2022 at about 1500 hours, Police Obuasi had a distress call that someone had placed a day old baby in a paper box and abandoned same in a nearby bush by the roadside at Kwabenakwa.
