DHARMAPURI: The half-eaten body of a baby girl, over which stray dogs were fighting, was recovered by workers cleaning the drainage channel at the Government Dharmapuri Medical College Hospital premises here on Saturday.
Police said the workers found stray dogs fighting and trying to drag the headless body of the one-day-old baby.
The dogs were chased out and the body recovered, they said adding, it has been sent for autopsy.
Police have registered a case. The GDMC Hospital administration checked the maternity ward delivery list but found no infant missing.
Police suspect that some woman, who had delivered the baby, might have have thrown her into the drainage ditch.
"The identity of the baby is yet to be ascertained," a police official said.
