KUALA LUMPUR: The death of an 11-month-old baby, believed to have been abused and raped by her caretaker’s husband, has sparked outrage among social media users nationwide.
Social media users were quick to condemn and criticise the vile act after news of Nur Muazara Ulfa Muhammad Zainal’s death went viral on Facebook and WhatsApp.
The infant died at the Serdang Hospital on Friday morning, two days after she was admitted there in critical condition.
The majority also questioned what had become of Malaysian society, with so many incidents of child abuse and, worse, sexual abuses which lead to death.
Some even urged the government to reconsider its intention to abolish the death sentence to deal with such cases.
“The government should not abolish the death sentence as now there are many cruel people around. Imagine what would happen it was repealed,” said Facebook user Ina Usop.
A resident from Kota Kinabalu, Steve Roger, said that drug addicts who had past criminal records in such cases should undergo life-long prison sentences.
“It is time for hardcore drug addicts to be sentenced to life imprisonment, just like others who have committed serious crimes,” he said in a Facebook comment.
Meanwhile, others called for the photos of the caretaker and her husband, who were currently under remand until Tuesday, to be released to the public.
“Please reveal their (suspects’) faces and names to avoid others from sending their children to them,” said Nur Mohamad.
There were also calls for the government to enact strict laws to govern daycare services.
