Elderly Woman Remanded 7 days for beating Child




Senior caught beating child with back scratcher remanded for 7 days


PETALING JAYA: Police have obtained a seven-day remand order against a senior citizen who had brutally hit a child with a back scratcher for spilling food while having dinner.
The 62-year-old woman clad in purple lock-up attire, was hauled to the court at about 10am, in a police patrol car today.
The magistrate’s court assistant registrar Hairol Azhar Mohd Ishak issued the remand order to facilitate police investigation on the incident in which the video has gone viral recently.
Subang Jaya district police chief Assistant Commissioner Mohd Azlin Sadari when contacted said the video footage was recorded by the suspect’s friend in September last year.
“The suspect is the victim’s grand aunt,” he said, adding that the case is being investigated under Section 31(1)(a) of the Child Act 2001 for negligence and exposing a child to injury.
The three-minute video has attracted outrage from netizens as most were horrified and disgusted to see the women hitting the six-year-old girl relentlessly for at least 30 times, using a back scratcher.
It was believed that the incident had occurred when some of the girl’s food had spilled on the floor.
As the woman was beating the child, she can be heard saying: “No matter how many times I beat you, you do not want to eat properly. What is wrong with you?”
She can also heard saying, “Die, die. Get lost. Go and die somewhere. You don’t know how to eat.”
The video ended with the woman telling the girl to go inside a room.
