'It Looks Like She Wanted to Get Rid of the Baby'

Gee, ya think?

An unmarried Indian woman gave birth in the bathroom of an airplane mid-flight and then tried to flush the baby down the toilet, police and doctors said on Thursday.

Horror-struck crew members aboard the Turkmenistan Airlines flight made the gruesome discovery while cleaning the cabin after passengers got off the plane in the northern Indian city of Amritsar.

According to CNN, the toilet, with the newborn inside, was rushed to a hospital and surgeons had to cut the toilet with a saw to get the baby out, said Varinder Kumar, the city's police commissioner.

The baby is in critical condition. The mother, 25, was arrested at the airport.

She was taken to the same hospital as the child, and police will question her once she is declared medically and mentally fit.

In India, sex before marriage is still considered a taboo.

"It looks like she wanted to get rid of the baby," H.P. Singh, a doctor at Amritsar's Fortis Escorts hospital told CNN.

Consider it a botched late-term abortion.
