Police believe it was an accident that baby bodies disappeared from the clinic and were found in the laundry room.

A baby's body was reported missing from a clinic in Böblingen near Stuttgart and later discovered in a laundry facility. According to police, the preterm infant, who weighed less than one kilogram, was born at the clinic and subsequently died. The body was reportedly overlooked by laundry staff and accidentally taken away. The remains were found in a laundry facility under the jurisdiction of the Karlsruhe police headquarters. The incident came to light when a funeral director attempted to retrieve the body from the hospital’s cold storage on Wednesday but found it missing. Police are investigating potential violations of the deceased’s dignity, and the family has filed a report. The hospital operator, Klinikverbund Südwest, expressed deep regret over the incident and stated they would cooperate fully with the investigation while offering support to the family.
