Infant's Body Found in Suwon... Biological Mother Murdered and Neglected for 3 Years

[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kang Juhee] It was revealed that the body of an infant found on the 10th in an officetel in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province, had been murdered by the biological mother and left unattended for a long time.

The Suwon Southern Police Station in Gyeonggi announced on the 12th that they plan to file an arrest warrant for A (in her 40s) on charges of murder and concealment of a corpse.

A is suspected of killing her one-month-old daughter in 2017 by feeding her milk mixed with drugs and leaving the body unattended in the officetel where she lived in Suwon for over three years.

The crime was uncovered after the local district office found it suspicious that there were no medical records or childcare subsidy payment histories for the registered daughter and requested the police to locate A.

When the police visited A’s officetel around 4 p.m. on the 10th, A was reportedly unconscious and collapsed after having taken drugs.

It was reported that A’s life was not in danger, and after receiving treatment, she confessed her crime to the police.

During the police investigation, A stated, "I was unable to raise the child without a husband and intended to put her up for adoption, but that was also difficult, so I committed the crime."

The police are conducting a thorough investigation into the exact circumstances of the case with A.
