A baby boy reported missing in southern China was killed and thrown on to a rubbish dump by his mother, according to a news website report.

The 26-day-old child was killed by his mother in Qionghai in Hainan province at about 3am on Sunday, Hinews.cn reported.

The boy was reported missing later that day by his father and it was originally thought the child had been abducted.

The boy’s body was found on the rubbish tip on Tuesday.

The mother, whose full name was not given, told police she had throttled the child and discarded the body, the report said.

The police investigation is still underway.

The killing has prompted a mixed reaction on social media in China.

“I don’t understand. Does this woman have a heart?” one person wrote on social media.

Another posted: “This is too ruthless! How could she kill her own child? Not even an animal would do this! She could give him to others.”

Another person writing on social media was more sympathetic.

“You haven’t given birth before. You don’t know how scary postnatal depression is. I had thoughts of throttling my child, too. It was really dangerous now that I reflect on it,” she wrote.
