Abandoned baby discovery exposes incest case, three arrested
KAJANG: Police have arrested three people, including a man who falsely claimed to have discovered a newborn baby girl in a box near a petrol station in Batu 14, Hulu Langat, on Sunday. District police chief Assistant Commissioner Mohd Naazron Abd Yusof said the arrests, made yesterday evening, followed investigations that revealed the baby was born from an incestuous relationship between a 39-year-old man and his 16-year-old daughter. "The complainant, a 29-year-old security guard, was actually in cahoots with the man. The so-called discovery was fabricated to conceal the birth," he said in a statement today. The teenage girl, who has stopped schooling, is believed to have given birth recently. The baby, found alive at 1.56am on Aug 11, was in good health and has been placed under hospital observation. Naazron said acting on information, police detained two men and one woman, aged between 16 and 39. "The two male suspects have been remanded for one and six days respectively, while the female suspect has been released on police bail and is receiving medical treatment," he said. The case is being investigated under Section 317 of the Penal Code for abandonment of a child and Section 376(3) for incest. "If convicted under Section 317, the offender faces imprisonment of up to seven years, a fine, or both. Section 376(3) carries imprisonment of between eight and 30 years and no fewer than 10 strokes of the cane," Naazron said. He urged anyone with information to contact the investigating officer, Inspector Mohd Hizwan Hamzah, at 019-6369835or the nearest police station.
