A BRIT has been charged with killing her toddler in Finland.
The 35-year-old was arrested after police forced their way into her apartment in Espoo, near Helsinki, on Sunday and found the dead child.
The mum, thought to be a teacher, was led away in a wheelchair, witnesses said.
She appeared in court charged with homicide and will reappear in April.
A police spokesman said the mother had “acknowledged the deed”.
“No other persons have been in the apartment and no other persons are involved in the incident.
“West Nyland District Court has arrested her. Both the suspect and the victim are UK citizens.
“The police department in Western Uusimaa investigates the case as murder.
“Due to the rules of the Preliminary Investigation Act regarding the publicity of the preliminary investigation material, we are unable to provide further information at this stage.”
