Accused in judicial custody; search on for newborn

Afraid of threats from her step-grandfather, the girl stayed silent at first but eventually confided in her stepmother. This led to a police complaint by her uncle.

The investigation is ongoing to ensure both the girl's safety and to locate the child.
