SHARJAH // A baby girl is safe after being found in a basket in the car park of a supermarket on Sunday.

A member of the public called police at about 12.30pm after hearing the nine-month-old crying but she was found to be in good health after being left for dead in the Al Majaz area of the emirate.

The baby was taken to Al Qassimi Hospital for tests but, after she was found to be well, she was handed over to Sharjah social care centre.

Forensic teams surveyed the scene for fingerprints and police are investigating to find out who left the baby abandoned in the car park and to establish their motives, reported The National's sister paper, Al Ittihad.

In March, an Ethiopian maid placed her six-week-old baby boy conceived out of wedlock into a box weighed down with bricks and threw him into the sea, before his body washed up on Al Hira corniche.

How to turn your property into a holiday home
  1. Ensure decoration and styling – and portal photography – quality is high to achieve maximum rates.
  2. Research equivalent Airbnb homes in your location to ensure competitiveness.
  3. Post on all relevant platforms to reach the widest audience; whether you let personally or via an agency know your potential guest profile – aiming for the wrong demographic may leave your property empty.
  4. Factor in costs when working out if holiday letting is beneficial. The annual DCTM fee runs from Dh370 for a one-bedroom flat to Dh1,200. Tourism tax is Dh10-15 per bedroom, per night.
  5. Check your management company has a physical office, a valid DTCM licence and is licencing your property and paying tourism taxes. For transparency, regularly view your booking calendar.
