A CCTV camera has captured a mum carrying out a gruesome act.

The 20 year-old woman, known only by her surname Wang, reportedly gave birth to the child just hours before proceeding to dump the baby.

She is thought to have done so because she has no stable income of her own and doesn’t know the father of the child.

Residents in the city of Kunming in China spotted a plastic bag and were shocked to find a newborn baby inside.

The child was taken to police and taken to hospital; unfortunately, the baby died despite efforts to save it.

Investigators later found Wang after probing the CCTV footage.

She was found in her home, a short distance from the spot where she left the child.

She reportedly confessed to abandoning the child after giving birth to it. Although she refused to give a reason for her actions.

It was unclear if the child died before or after being abandoned.
