The Cuffe Parade police have arrested a 22-year-old woman, who aborted her nine-month-old foetus and dumped it in a dustbin at Cuffe Parade.
Rina Munda, the accused, who works as a domestic help at Jolly Makers III, Cuffe Parade confessed to the police that she took the drastic step after her lover walked out on her.
The incident came to light after the building supervisor and some residents spotted a dead female foetus in the dustbin. Vilas Bole, police inspector of Cuffe Parade Police Station said, “Initially, she refused to accept the crime but when we told her that the DNA test would reveal the truth, she accepted her crime.”
Police said that Munda was having an affair with another servant, who was sacked by his employer few months ago. “We are yet to find out her boyfriend’s role in the crime,” an investigating police officer said.
Munda, who hails from Assam, consumed some abortion pills in the bathroom of the flat and then later dumped the foetus in the dustbin. She has been booked under Section 318 of the Indian Penal Code (Concealment of birth by secret disposal of dead body).
