Newborn and mum
found dead in toilet
A newborn girl and her
single mother were found
dead in the toilet of a
factory hours after her
birth.
A cleaner discovered the
bodies at Taman
Perindustrian Merlimau,
Malacca, on Thursday at
about 8am, Berita Harian
reported.
A police spokesman said
the mother, in her 30s,
from Kemendor near
Jasin, was believed to
have died of excessive
bleeding.
He said the woman had
entered the toilet at 3am
and given birth to the
baby.
He said they were
waiting for the post-
mortem report from
Hospital Jasin.
“The victim is believed
to have been staying
with her brother in
Kampung Kilang Berapi
before the incident
occurred, ” a source said.
> A lorry attendant was
sentenced to 10 days
behind bars after he
failed to produce his
MyKad when requested
by the police, reported
Sinar Harian.
M. Gobinah, 21, was also
fined RM300 after
pleading guilty to the
offence which occurred
in Kapar, Klang, on June
20.
Under Regulation 25(1)(n)
of the National
Registration Regulations,
anyone found guilty of
not carrying his or her
MyKad at all times could
be fined a maximum of
RM20,000 or jailed up to a
maximum of three years,
or both.
Gobinah told magistrate
Azlinda Ahmad Sharif that
he had lost his MyKad two
days before he was
stopped by the police.
He, however, failed to
produce a police report
on the loss.
Earlier, Gobinah pleaded
not guilty to the charge
of possessing 0.03g of
amphetamine at the same
place, time and day that
he was detained.
