Detectives investigating the death of a newborn baby found near Bolton believe she lived independently of her mother for a short period of time.
The body of a baby girl discovered on a country lane near Bolton in March has been laid to rest.
Police called the child 'Alia' - which means 'beautiful' - after her parents failed to come forward.
Her tiny body was wrapped in a carrier bag with the plea written on a scrap of paper to give her an Islamic burial.
Today that wish was fulfilled.
