This is the shocking moment a woman gives birth during a street festival before leaving her baby to die so she can continue partying.
CCTV footage captures the mother – who had been celebrating the Songkran Festival in Bangkok – delivering the child in a car park and walking away as though nothing had happened.
In the grainy video, the woman, 27, named by police as Piyathida, appears to be doubled over in pain as she staggers around with her hands on her hips.
She can be seen pulling down her trousers and squatting next to a parked car before leaving something behind some potted plants.
Piyathida then slowly limps away and returns to the festival outside Rotsarin Village in Bangkok’s Don Mueang district on April 14.
Later on in the 6-minute footage, a group of bystanders could be seen looking around the area the baby was discovered.
Although the infant was found alive and resuscitation efforts were made, tragically, it could not be saved.
Piyathida was reportedly seen splashing water with friends nearby while visibly bleeding from her legs.
