A fetus found in a plastic bag at a Santa Ponsa home prompted a formal investigation by the Guardia Civil. Authorities are awaiting the autopsy results to determine the circumstances of the infant’s death and to assess whether any criminal conduct by the mother or others may be involved.
According to sources close to the case, the events unfolded on the night of the prior Friday when a man called the Guardia Civil to report finding a fetus inside a plastic bag at his residence in Santa Ponsa. A patrol unit arrived at the scene, confirmed the discovery, and alerted the Judicial Police along with a duty judge to oversee the proceedings.
Investigators examined the fetus, which was inside the bag, and observed bloodstains in the home. At the time, the mother, identified as the partner of the man who made the notification, was not present in the residence.
Following a completion of the initial inspection that extended into the early hours of Saturday, the court on duty authorized the removal of the body. It was transported to the Institute of Legal Medicine for autopsy procedures, which are scheduled to take place today. Investigators are awaiting the forensic results to shed light on the factors surrounding the death and any potential forensic indicators of foul play.
The case remains under active investigation as authorities gather additional evidence from residence checks and trace the movements of the individuals involved. While the investigation continues, the public safety bodies emphasize the need for careful handling of sensitive findings and adherence to legal procedures to ensure that any potential criminal component is thoroughly evaluated. The Guardia Civil and the judicial authorities will provide updates as new forensic information becomes available, and specialists at the medical examiner’s facility will deliver expert insights into the infant’s condition and the probable sequence of events surrounding the death. At this stage, researchers stress that autopsy results will be crucial in clarifying both the biological aspects and the broader context of the incident, guiding any subsequent legal actions and public communication.
