According to him, no one could enter the stream to attempt to either carry or save it until it stopped breathing.
“It was a surprise when we woke up in the morning and discovered the foetus, but no one can explain how it got there.

It was about seven months old and it’s like a forced labour. It is painful that it died while we were still observing it”, he told Vanguard news.
