Residents of RT 06/05, Ujung Krawang, Pulogebang Village, Cakung District, East Jakarta were shocked by the sound of a baby crying that occurred on Monday night, July 14, 2025.

The sound of the cry initially came from in front of the door of the house of a resident named Haji Tohir.

"When I wanted to recite the Koran, my partner. Then my wife also heard, saying there was a cat's voice. 'Sir, how come the cat sounds like a orok'," Haji Tohir told reporters, Tuesday, July 15, 2025.

Even the owner of the house did not expect that the voice was a baby dumped by an unknown person in front of his door.

"I said, the cat. (wife said) It was impossible for a cat. When I opened the door, it turned out that there was another orok crying. I picked it up. I reported to the residents' management," he said.

When found, the baby was lying on the front door of Haji Tohir's house. The baby was covered in a blanket cloth and there was a can.

"A baby boy. He is 10-19 days or so," he said.

Haji Tohir admitted that previously he did not hear anyone opening the gate of his house when the baby was placed. After checking, the condition of the fence of his house was also closed.

"There is no sound of fences, the gate is closed," he said in surprise.

Upon the discovery of the baby, the owner of the house then reported to the local RT management to follow up on the tiny baby.

After the discovery of the baby, a number of Ujung Krawang residents continued to come to Haji Tohir's house to see the baby. Allegedly, the baby was deliberately abandoned by his parents.

Then the baby was taken to Duren Sawit Hospital to check his health condition by health workers and the East Jakarta Social Sub-Department.

East Jakarta Social Sub-Department TRC P3S officer Kurniawan said, after checking the baby's health condition, later the baby will be taken to a Toddler's Home in East Jakarta.

"Currently, we will direct them to Duren Sawit Hospital for a medical examination. If there are no problems, they will be taken to a toddler home," he said.
