JAKARTA - A baby girl found in a damaged toilet in the East Flood Canal (KBT) Cakung District, East Jakarta, is still undergoing treatment at Duren Sawit Hospital on Thursday, August 8, evening.

"The baby is still being treated at the Duren Sawit Army Hospital. There are red spots on his body, possibly mosquito or insect bites," said East Jakarta Sudinsos rescue officer Kurniawan to VOI in the Duren Sawit area.

Later, after undergoing treatment, the baby girl will be taken to a social institution.

"After treatment, a visit will be made to a toddler social institution," he said.

It is strongly suspected that the baby was dumped by her parents due to physical disabilities.

"It is suspected that he was thrown away because his lips were slightly flawed," he said.

Previously, it was reported that residents of the East Flood Canal (KBT) in Cakung District, East Jakarta, were shocked by the discovery of a female baby who was dumped by irresponsible people in an empty toilet building in the Cakung area, East Jakarta, Thursday, August 8.

When found, the baby was alive but had physical defects. The baby's innocent body was wrapped in a blanket and kept crying hysterically.

Residents who found it then reported to the East Jakarta Social Sub-Department (TRC Sudinsos) Rapid Response Team. Officers who arrived at the location immediately evacuated.
