The area assistant chief, Francis Kaluma, ordered the family to exhume the child’s body after receiving a tip from neighbours.
“I was informed that a woman had delivered and buried her baby alive. I went there and demanded to know where the baby was buried. When they exhumed the body, we were shocked to find the child still alive,” Kaluma said.
The baby was immediately rushed to Sultan Hamud Hospital for medical attention, but sadly succumbed to injuries and passed away on Sunday morning.
