KUALA LUMPUR — Police have arrested a babysitter suspected of abusing six-to nine-month infants at a childcare centre in Alam Indah, Cheras.

Cheras district police chief ACP Aidil Bolhassan said the 26-year-old local woman was arrested on December 16.

“Three reports were filed, and investigations found only one suspect involved,” he said in a statement today.

He said the case is being investigated under Section 31(1)(a) of the Child Act 2001.

Media reports cited that a woman was traumatised after CCTV footage showed her six-month-old being thrown, rolled and slapped by a childcare worker.

The footage sparked public outcry and concern, with allegations that several other infants at the day care centre were also abused.— December 28, 2025
