In Regensburg, a dead baby was discovered in a garbage can on Christmas Day.
The alleged mother of the child has been arrested and is on remand.
That is what the police said.

The 24-year-old mother was found in a hospital.
An autopsy of the baby revealed that the little girl did not die of natural causes.
