Leipzig / Mügeln (dpa / sn) - After a dead baby was found on Tuesday in Mügeln (Northern Saxony), his body was autopsied.

The preliminary report is not yet available, announced the Leipzig public prosecutor on Wednesday.

The investigators hope that the results of the forensic medical examination and the extensive securing of evidence at the site will provide information about what is happening.

The authority did not provide any further information about the investigations, which, according to their information, are continuing "at high pressure".

The body of the baby was discovered on Tuesday in an overgrown meadow between a street and some houses.

Age and gender are just as unknown as the length of stay, background and circumstances in the case.

The investigation is carried out in all directions, including the child's mother.
