15-year old Thai girl buries her baby ALIVE

A 15 year old girl is now in protective custody in Nakhon Ratchasima, north-east of Bangkok, just one day after her newly-born baby boy survived being buried alive in a local field.

A villager found the baby in a cassava plantation about one kilometre from Ban Nong Kham village in Tambon Thalad on Wednesday.

The infant was taken to the village before being sent to the district hospital.

41 year old Usa Nisaikha says he was herding cows near the plantation when he heard a dog barking and a baby crying.

He said he ran to the spot and found the dog clawing at the ground and noticed a baby’s leg sticking up from the ground.

He said he dug the baby out of the ground and carried him to the village.

Police conducted an investigation and learned that a 15 year old girl living near the spot had bought an unusual amount of sanitary napkins.

When police questioned her she admitted she gave birth to the boy and buried him for fear that her father would find out and punish her.

Nakhon Ratchasima’s governor Wichian Chantharanothai and Trairat Witthayanumart, the chief of the Chumpuang district, visited the baby at Chumpuang Hospital.

Trairat said the baby is healthy.

He said that the girl’s parents have sought permission to take care of the baby after he is released from hospital
