They find the body of a baby inside a chest freezer in a home

This week the Civil Guard has opened an investigation into the appearance of the lifeless body of a baby in a home in Allariz (Ourense), on Monday, November 2, according to sources familiar with the events.

According to the newspaper La Región, the body was located last Monday inside a chest freezer by a woman who was reviewing the belongings of her mother, who recently died. The appliance was located in a storage room in the garage of a building in Allariz. It was when he opened it that he discovered the remains of the newborn.

The first data indicate that the baby would have been born after a gestation of between 32 and 34 weeks, and would have been able to breathe. Furthermore, initial estimates indicate that his death could have occurred more than two decades ago, although forensic analysis will be the one that will clarify the circumstances of his death.

On the other hand, investigators have already taken statements from several people related to the discovery and have sent DNA samples to a laboratory in Madrid. The objective is to determine the identity of the baby and try to identify its biological parents by analyzing the samples.

The investigation also tries to clarify where the death occurred, since, according to the first investigations collected by the aforementioned newspaper, it is not ruled out that the body had been transferred inside the freezer from Ourense to the Allariz home where it was finally found.
