A BRITISH woman who allegedly abandoned her newborn baby in a Malaga hospital had six children taken away from her before moving to Spain, it emerged yesterday.

The child, who was premature, was in a baby unit and the mum was on a general ward when she left with her partner.

A Spanish newspaper said police found out her parenting history after finding them in a village 15 miles away where they live with her ex-pat father.

The woman, aged around 40, was due to face court yesterday.

Her partner was arrested for child abandonmen­t.

Police said the mum left hospital “without saying anything to medical staff ”.

The baby is understood to be healthy.
