The 19-year-old Gqeberha woman who allegedly kidnapped a four-day-old baby was released on bail in the New Brighton Magistrates Court on Monday.
Amahle Sigam was released on bail of R300 after spending nearly a month behind bars.
As part of her court-ordered bail conditions, Sigam has been barred from contacting the baby's mother or her family.
The abduction took place on 27 November last year, when 33-year-old, Noncedo Jali, was discharged from Dora Nginza Hospital after giving birth to her baby boy several days earlier.
It is alleged that Sigam fraudulently posed as a friend of the family.
They went to Kenako Mall to buy clothing for the newborn baby. While in the mall, she allegedly disappeared with the child.
She was arrested when alert Dora Nginza hospital staff contacted the police after a woman tried to register the baby boy using fictitious paperwork.
The case was remanded to 11 September.
