A decapitated and disembowelled two-year-old boy was found hanging from a barbed wire fence by his mum after falling 31 storeys to his death when he was reportedly left home alone.
These graphic images taken by neighbours reportedly show the decapitated child with his entrails exposed as he was found by his mother, who had to be escorted away by arriving police officers.
The two-year-old, whose name has not been given, had been left sleeping at home on 24th July when his mum went out to the shops and to do her hair.

According to reports, she returned two hours later at roughly 2pm local time to find the windows of their 31st-floor flat open and her son nowhere to be seen.
She began searching for the boy with the help of security guards at Vanke Golden Incense Residential District in the city of Zhuhai in South China’s Guangdong Province.
She found her son hanging from the barbed wire fence of the residential complex’s boundary wall, with police – who called the scene “horrific” – quoted in local media as saying that the child was “cut in two” by the blades on the metal coils.
The distraught mum was escorted away by arriving police officers.
The boy, who is thought to have been looking for his mum after he woke up to find the home empty, was declared dead at the scene.
Investigations are ongoing.
