They noticed a bad smell coming from a dustbin near their home in Postmasburg, Northern Cape on Wednesday. Nothing could have prepared the little children for the shocking discovery they made while playing.

When the kids lifted the lid and looked inside, they saw tiny fingers sticking out of a plastic bag. They opened it and found the body of a newborn baby. The children told their parents and the cops were called to the scene.

The police are looking for the person who left the dead baby girl in the dustbin.

Police spokesman Captain Olebogeng Tawana said: “We are investigating a case of concealment of birth.
