POLICE have released photos of the woman’s pyjamas the newborn girl was wrapped in when she was discovered dead from cold and hunger under an olive tree on Monday.

The police hope the photos might shed some light on the identity of the newborn mother’s whom they have been looking for all week.

The baby was discovered in the Larnaca suburb of Aradippou on Monday morning.

State pathologist Eleni Antoniou who did the post-mortem said that the baby was born by natural labour probably on Sunday night and was still connected to the placenta when found.

“She was probably born at home since I think it’s unlikely that the woman managed to get to a spot, removed from residential areas, in order to give birth in the cold alone,” Antoniou said.
