The Child Protection and Family Services Agency says it has launched an investigation into a matter in which a one-year-old Haitian child sustained injuries to her face while in State care.

On Friday, the child’s mother was granted $150,000 bail on humanitarian grounds in the St Catherine Parish Court, arising from the injuries sustained by her child.

It was argued that the woman should be released to care for her child.
