Newborn's body thrown from vehicle in Nilphamari

NILPHAMARI, Jan 10 (UNB): The body of a newborn, wrapped in a bag, was thrown from a human-hauler at Bamnabamni village in Jaldhaka upazila on Wednesday.

Witnesses said a man and a woman threw a bag from the running human-hauler at the intersection of Bamnabamni and Harishchandrapath villages.

As the driver stopped the vehicle and asked them to lift the bag, the duo got off the three-wheeler and ran away, they said.

Smelling something fishy, locals unwrapped the bag only to see the body of a newborn inside along with the bloodstained clothes. On information, police recovered the body.
