The discovery of an infant’s body at a local landfill has sent shockwaves through the local community of Vravrona. Authorities confirmed the infant sustained head injuries, most likely from debris during waste disposal operations.
The case took a distressing turn when police investigations revealed the child was discarded by its parents. The father, in a statement to the police, claimed the baby was stillborn and out of fear and confusion, he disposed of the body in the trash.
The incident was corroborated by security footage. The parents, both Nepalese nationals aged 24 and 25, were working and residing at a local hotel.
The situation came to light when the mother was taken to “Alexandra” Hospital due to severe bleeding, where it was discovered she had recently given birth.
Police were alerted when no baby was found with her. It was later revealed that the woman had gone into premature labor at the hotel.
A state coroner is set to determine whether the infant was born dead,as claimed by the father, or alive, which could lead to more severe charges for the parents.
Known as mild-mannered individuals by their acquaintances, the parents’ actions have left the community and local authorities grappling with the tragic event.
Giannis Aidiniotis, Deputy Mayor of Markopoulo, expressed his dismay to iefimerida.gr: “We are searching through fifteen to twenty tons of garbage for the infant’s body. T
This incident has deeply shocked us all. The police are meticulously combing through the landfill, guided by the sanitation team, to piece together this heartbreaking story.”
