At 8:30 pm on December 31, and therefore two days before the discovery of the dead newborn in the heated crib of the church of San Giovanni Battista in Bari , a woman allegedly heard a sound similar to cries coming from the crib . A sound that was unfortunately mistaken for meowing , given the presence of numerous cats in the neighborhood , many of which were adopted by some residents.
Two days after the baby was found, so on January 4, the woman, a pensioner who lives in a building opposite the place where the crib is located , as reported today by Quotidiano di Puglia, went to the Carabinieri to make a spontaneous statement . A shocking testimony transmitted by the military to colleagues of the Flying Squad who last Wednesday interviewed the woman as a person informed of the facts.
And while tests continue on the thermal cradle equipment to determine why the device did not work properly , the funeral of the little boy is scheduled for tomorrow at 10 am, in the cemetery of Bari. Archbishop Giuseppe Satriano will officiate, with the expenses covered by the Municipality in the absence of the newborn's family.
