Pinay who threw own baby down garbage chute in UAE to face trial soon

The Filipina who threw her newborn baby down a garbage chute from the ninth floor of a building in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) last month will face trial soon, a report of the news site Khaleej Times said.

If found guilty, the 26-year-old mother will be jailed. She and the baby will then be deported after she completes her prison term, the report said.

On Wednesday, the news site Emirates 24/7 said the newborn baby thrown by his Filipina mother was already in stable condition.

Hospital officials said the baby will be transferred from the intensive care unit (ICU) to the pediatrics ward after doctors succeeded in stopping his brain hemorrhage, the report said.

Doctors said the baby suffered from a fractured skull, internal bleeding and infections but the baby’s heart and lungs were not injured.

The Arabic newspaper Alittihad quoted the hospital’s director Dr. Aref Al Nourani as saying the baby now weighs around three kilograms and will remain for seven to 10 days in the pediatrics ward before he is handed to the social care center.

Earlier, the Filipina confessed that she got pregnant by an Asian man who is not currently in the UAE.

She said she gave birth to the baby in the bathroom while her sponsor family was sleeping.

She then put the baby boy in a plastic bag and threw him down the garbage chute.
