A newborn baby was found dead after reportedly being thrown from a high-rise building in Karachi’s Gulshan-e-Iqbal area. The incident occurred in Block 13-D, where cleaning staff discovered the body behind a 20-storey building.
Police reached the scene and launched an investigation into the incident. Officials said the newborn appeared to be three to four days old.
Police Gather Evidence During Investigation
Investigators found blood stains and other evidence on several floors of the building. Therefore, police suspect someone threw the newborn from an upper floor.
Police are questioning residents living in different flats as part of the investigation. Meanwhile, officers are examining the available evidence to determine what happened.
Authorities have not confirmed any arrests in connection with the case. However, investigators continue searching for clues that could identify those responsible.
Body Handed Over to Welfare Organisation
Authorities handed the newborn’s body to a welfare organisation after completing initial procedures. Police said they would also register a formal case over the incident.
Furthermore, investigators will continue questioning residents and examining evidence from the building. Police aim to establish the circumstances surrounding the newborn’s death.
Officials said further developments could emerge as the investigation progresses. Authorities have urged anyone with relevant information to cooperate with investigators.
