NANNY ARRESTED FOR ALLEGEDLY KILLING BABY, PUTTING BODY IN SAKO BAG IN QC

POLICE arrested a babysitter who allegedly killed an 11-month-old baby girl in Quezon City.

According to the Quezon City Police District (QCPD), the suspect was the 26-year-old live-in partner of the infant’s uncle.

Based on a report from Police Station 16 under Lt. Col. Timothy Aniway, the babysitter reported to the Station Women and Children’s Concerns Section (SWCCS) on the night of May 30, 2026, claiming that the infant had been abducted by two unidentified men from their residence in Bgy. Pasong Putik Proper.

Authorities conducted a follow-up investigation, including CCTV backtracking and verification of the suspect’s statement.

Police said that based on the CCTV footages, no men entered the apartment.

Officers then proceeded to the apartment. The suspect initially hesitated to open the door but later complied.

Police smelled a foul odor from inside the house and immediately conducted a search until they found on the second floor of the apartment a sako bag containing the baby’s body inside.

Investigators said the suspect  later admitted killing the child by banging the infant’s head into the pavement before placing the body in a sako bag.

The nanny told probers that she became irritated  of the baby’s continuous crying and inflicted physical harm on the child.

The baby’s mother is an overseas Filipino worker while the father is in the province when the incident happened.

The suspect was immediately placed under arrest and informed of her constitutional rights.

A complaint for murder has already been filed against her before the Quezon City Prosecutor’s Office.

“Walang puwang ang pang-aabuso dito sa Quezon City lalo na sa mga batang walang kalaban-laban. Mariin nating kinokondena ang ganitong karahasan. Ang pagkakahuli dito sa suspect ay patunay na hindi kailanman makakapagtago sa batas ang sinumang nagkasala, Quezon City Police District (QCPD) Director Brig. Gen. Randy Glenn Silvio said.
