The Samarinda City Police (Polresta) detained the mother with the initials NR (18) who dumped her baby in the plantation area of Samarinda Hills Housing, Loa Janan Ilir District, Samarinda City, East Kalimantan (Kaltim). "We are still investigating the motive of the suspect, because his statements are still changing. Currently, he admits to throwing his baby, but we don't know who the mother or father are," said Samarinda Police Chief Kombes Pol Ary Fadli during a press conference in Samarinda, East Kalimantan, Monday, February 26, which was confiscated by Antara. Ary explained that the suspect was arrested on Thursday, February 22. Against the suspect, Samarinda Police suspected Article 76B Junto 77B of the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 35 of 2014, a change from RI Law Number 23 of 2002 concerning child protection with a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a fine of Rp. 100 million.
According to him, NR's family did not know that NR was pregnant and had given birth to the baby.
He suspects that NR dumped the baby not long after the birth process. "The baby was found at around 09.00 WITA by a resident under a banana tree. We estimate the baby was dumped about 3-4 hours earlier, because it had been surrounded by ants. We also found aari around where the baby was dumped," he said.
