Local authorities swiftly responded to the scene near Farooq-e-Azam Mosque in North Nazimabad and initiated efforts to gather CCTV footage from the vicinity.

In a parallel incident, another distressing discovery occurred when the body of a premature baby was found abandoned in a washroom garbage bin at a private hospital in North Nazimabad.

Hospital staff made this heart-wrenching discovery while sorting through discarded waste.

The hospital promptly reported the incident to local authorities, leading to the hospital administration initiating legal proceedings.

The woman involved, identified as Maryam, had initially visited the private hospital for a routine check-up.

However, just before undergoing an ultrasound examination, she abruptly left the hospital premises, as captured by CCTV footage.

The footage revealed two women, both wearing burqas, departing the facility in a rickshaw. Prior to her sudden departure, Maryam had entered the hospital’s washroom, where the prematurely born baby’s body was later discovered.

Law enforcement authorities have declared that a case will be registered against those responsible in accordance with the law.
