KARACHI, Feb 17: The body of a newborn baby girl was found on an empty plot in the Korangi area on Friday, according to the Chhipa Welfare Association.
The charity said passers-by spotted a suspicious-looking bag in Korangi 2½ and contacted the area police who then passed on the information to their volunteers."The body was moved to the Chhipa centre and, after due formalities, buried in a graveyard," said a Chhipa official. He, however, said there were no legal formalities by the police nor was the charity service asked to give any details.
