Currently, the Vinh Tan Ward Police working group has taken statements from two women, Phan Thi P. (born in 1995) and Ngo Thi N. (born in 1959 - P.'s biological mother), both residing in Hamlet 8, Hung Nghia Commune, Hung Nguyen District, Nghe An.
"The baby in the styrofoam box is the 4-day-old newborn son of Phan Thi P.", said the leader of Vinh Tan ward.
At the authorities, Ms. P. stated that due to difficult family circumstances, when her child was born, the doctor diagnosed her with many illnesses and found that she was unable to raise the child, so she asked to be discharged from the hospital.
At about 4:00 p.m. on September 24, P. took Mrs. Nh. and the baby to Vinh market to buy a foam box and then went to the riverbank area about 20m from Tung Binh bridge, in Cong Hoa block, Vinh Tan ward.
Here, P. told Mrs. N. to wait on the road, while he went down to the riverbank, put the baby in a styrofoam box, and let it float on the river. At that time, some people discovered it and brought the baby safely to shore.
Upon receiving the news, Vinh Tan Ward Police arrived at the scene to clarify the incident.
The mother was then taken to the police station, and the baby was taken to Nghe An Maternity and Pediatrics Hospital for a health check. The baby showed no signs of scratches or skin damage, had normal pulse, breathing, temperature, and vital functions, weighed 2.3 kg, and showed signs of jaundice.
