A baby boy was miraculously saved from death after he was pulled out of a
shallow grave where he was buried by his 25-year-old South African
mother. The child had been in the grave for three days and was
discovered after factory staff heard a cry and decided to investigate.

The
incident occurred in the town of Paddock, in KwaZulu-Natal Province,
eastern South Africa.  The baby’s mother, who works in a factory, made a
makeshift grave using sand and timber taken from the factory. After the
baby was found days later by her co-workers, the mother confessed that
she buried him because she was upset that her parents will be angry with
her for having a second child.

Captain Gerald Mfeka confirmed
the incident to journalists, saying: “They searched and found him hidden
underneath some timber, covered in sand. On hearing the commotion, the
mother confessed that the child was hers. Her explanation was that she
was afraid of her parents.

“This was her second child, the elder one being four years old, and she felt her parents would not approve of another baby.”
