A LIMPOPO woman accused of abandoning her five-month-old baby was released on a warning by the Mankweng Magistrate's Court.

The case against Eunice Manaka, 28, was postponed to October 2, said Constable Moses Molepo.

Patrolling police found the baby on the side of a road on Saturday night.

A tip-off led to the arrest of Manaka, who confessed to dumping the baby boy, Molepo said.

The child was being kept at a place of safety.
