Three detained over alleged abuse of two girls
KUALA LUMPUR, July 18 — Police arrested three individuals, including a woman and her boyfriend, last night for allegedly abusing her two children, aged two and three, in Taman Samudera, Batu Caves near here.
Gombak district police chief, ACP Zainal Mohamed Mohamed, said the arrest was made after police received a report informing that two girls were found in an unkempt condition at Jalan Samudera Utara 1, here, at about 1 pm today.
He said that a physical examination of the two children found scratches and bruises on the hands, cheeks, legs and chin, and both were sent to Selayang Hospital for further examination.
