Shocking footage has been released of the moment a newborn baby was found alive inside a black bin bag. The baby, which had been so tragically discarded, still had its umbilical cord and placenta attached.
Video posted online and believed to be from the Philippines, shows a group of men and women coming to the aid of the infant after it was discovered lying on the side of the road inside the bag. A woman in a pink tracksuit is filmed putting on a pair of plastic cleaning gloves before ripping open the bag containing the infant. Another bystander lays out a piece of fabric for the baby to be placed on.
