Pune: Newborn Girl’s Body Found In Mula-Mutha River In Manjari; Police Probe Suspected Secret Disposal

Pune police are investigating a newborn baby girl's body discovered in the Mula-Mutha riverbed in the Manjari area, with suspicions of a secret disposal. The Wagholi police registered a case against an unidentified woman under Section 94 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). The baby's body was found behind the VTP Kohinoor construction site in Manjari, according to Senior Police Inspector Nandkumar Gaikwad.

The discovery is believed to have occurred between 10 to 15 days prior. A fishing boatman discovered the baby's body and alerted the police, leading to the retrieval of the infant. Initial reports classified the case as the discovery of an unidentified dead infant, but suspicions arose due to the potential concealment of the birth and subsequent disposal of the newborn.

Police are actively investigating the area and conducting inquiries at nearby hospitals to identify the mother. Key challenges include determining the birth location, the baby's condition at birth, and understanding the events that followed. Identifying the mother remains a crucial aspect of the ongoing investigation, with authorities seeking technical assistance to gather evidence and take appropriate action against the suspect.
