The baby, who remains unidentified, was found on August 16, 2021, at Visy recycling facility in Onehunga.

Community leaders named her Anahera, which means Angel, after news of the find was made public.

Several items of both baby and adult clothing were found in a blue plastic bag near baby Anahera, including a Winnie the Pooh onesie, women’s belts and a sequined skirt that appeared to have been cut up.

Detective inspector Scott Beard said police had been unable to find a link or connection between the baby and the clothes in the plastic bag.

“She’s been waiting in the mortuary for the last year,” he said.

“We’re working with the coroner’s office to have her released. If we do get approval for that we’ll be able to arrange a community service for her.”'

Cat Scratcher

Graham from Blockhouse Bay

A long time friend bequeathed his cat to me before passing away. She has settled into my place very well, but unfortunately she has taken a liking to scratching my leather swivel chair, then my laptop bag and then my umbrella in the corner. Does anyone have a cat scratcher they no longer want? … View moreA long time friend bequeathed his cat to me before passing away.
