Among us...

The girl is not married yet. It seems to be an unplanned pregnancy, and out of marriage. A difficult situation when the father of the still not born baby has abandoned the mother. Its full term now and may be she had to make a choice. She along with four of her fellow colleagues/friends plotted the plan and one among them is a nurse (or a dropout?). The nurse managed to smuggle injections and painkiller inside the highly secure manufacturing floor. The others brought in scissors and other accessories. They started their daily work as usual. They chose a right part during that night shift, locked themselves in a restroom and began the operation. The baby was delivered. And then they killed the baby, put that in a plastic bag and threw it in the waste bin. The next day morning a housekeeper found the body of the infant. What followed is the usual procedure of investigation- the girls were caught and we don't know the rest of the story.

Imagining the possibility of situations that could have happened during this kind of reckless and foolish acts is pretty scary. What if the girl has developed complications over her delivery. It could have been disastrous even for the girl. Looking at the circumstances and the incident itself it seems to be straight out of some fictional story with people who dare to spoil the life of a girl for granted and still get away, those who can dare to kill another life to safeguard theirs with such scant regards for life however puny it could be and those who can think the decision to take a life is easier and acceptable and be an accomplice in the crime. But these are real people and we live among people like this.

That rumor is that the cheat is her own brother in law. Awful.
