A young couple from Singapore have been accused of abandoning their newborn girl in a litter bin during their holiday in Taiwan.
The body of the baby was found in a plastic bag discarded in a kitchen waste bucket in Taipei early Tuesday, according to reports citing local police. It is unclear whether the tragic baby died before or after it was abandoned.
Authorities identified the suspects as a 23-year-old man and a 24-year-old woman, who have returned to Singapore the same day.
CCTV footage captured outside a restaurant in Ximending district purportedly shows the man carrying the baby in a black plastic bag before throwing it in the litter bin at around 3am on Tuesday.
