JAKARTA - Police are still investigating the case of the discovery of a two-day-old baby girl, Ameera Ramadhani, who was found in a uduk rice cart in front of the house of residents of Jalan Pejaten Raya RT 01/02, Pasar Minggu, South Jakarta (Jaksel), Tuesday afternoon (3/3).
"The process is still at the stage of finding the baby's older brother named Zidan (12) because he is the one who is suspected of leaving the baby," said the Head of the Pasar Minggu Police, Jaksel, Kompol Anggiat Sinambela, Thursday.

"If anyone wants to adopt, just go to the nursery. Later, there will be a procedure there," he said.
