Baby found in bag at Nandy Park still an unsolved mystery

Almost three months after the lifeless baby was found wrapped in a plastic bag at Nandy Park, East Bank Demerara (EBD), detectives are yet to crack the case, making it an unsolved mystery.

The dead newborn baby was found in front of an elderly woman’s house with the afterbirth inside of the bag. It is believed that the mother, after giving birth to the child, dumped the dead body on the roadway.
However, Police are yet to confirm this theory, since there is no evidence pointing in that direction. Police were reportedly making efforts to obtain the CCTV footage from the area, to ascertain what transpired but this has proven futile.
Regional Commander Kurliegh Simon when contacted on Sunday related that they were unable to bring closure to the mystery, since all efforts made to find the mother of the child fell through.
“There are no new developments on this matter since no one came forward, the child was buried”, he said.
On the day in question, the elderly woman, who made the discovery, told Police that she saw a bag lying in front of her home and went to see what it was.
Upon investigating, she saw the baby’s feet and immediately raised an alarm. The pensioner told the police that she did not notice any unusual movements in the area, since it was raining heavily during the day.
