Baby's father 102 had no comment

When she gave birth to an out-of-wedlock baby boy, the result of an affair with her dancing instructor, Gladys Mary Briggs locked the baby's body in a suitcase and kept it with her in her council flat for 50 years.

She died three months after council staff discovered the body.

The baby's father, now 102, had no comment because he "was very worried about the consequences."

Mother kept baby's body for 50 years.
