Police chief Supt Abdullah Roning said the 40-year-old woman, a food catering company staff, was remanded to assist in the probe for allegedly neglecting a child under her care under Section 31 of the Child Act.
“We are gathering evidence to ascertain what had taken place and why the boy, who was just skin and bones due to neglect and malnourishment, was left in such a deplorable state. The suspect is being held at the Seremban police lock-up and investigations are ongoing.” he told theSun when contacted today.
It is learnt that the woman, who also has another son aged six, had re-married after divorcing her first husband. However, she was left to manage both her sons on her own as her current husband was not living with her.
