Mother 'Threw Baby Down 40ft Rubbish Chute' A newborn baby was thrown down a five-floor rubbish chute by her mother in an attempt to kill her, a court has heard. The six-day-old girl from Wolverhampton is alleged to have been wrapped in material and dumped down the 40ft tube which ran down the family's tower block, hitting a metal deflector at the bottom at over 30mph which left her with several skull fractures and brain injuries. Jaymin Abdulrahman, 25, initially told police that her daughter had been kidnapped by strangers in September last year, but the baby was found a few hours later, apparently lifeless, by the father at the bottom of their block of flats. Abdulrahman, who is on trial at Birmingham Crown Court, denies charges of attempted murder, causing grievous bodily harm with intent and inflicting grievous bodily harm. In his opening speech, prosecutor Andrew Smith QC told the jury: "The reason why she decided to place her daughter in the rubbish chute may be never be known or understood. However, the prosecution say that her intention can be clearly identified from her actions. Abdulrahman allegedly tidied up her flat after dumping the baby girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons. The court was told that pieces of a broken Moses basket were found in a bin at the bottom of the chute, and bits of wood were discovered inside the flat. A crash dummy test was carried out by experts to reconstruct the fall, and the jury was shown computer-generated images of that experiment. Using a dummy of a nine-month-old child and a chute with a 44ft vertical drop, Mr Smith revealed that the estimated speed of impact with the metal deflector that is used to slow down pieces of rubbish was 32mph. Speaking in court, Mr Smith compared it to "having been in a 30mph car crash without wearing a seat-belt."
