According to BERNAMA sources, the incident came to light after the victim’s teacher noticed she was wearing regular clothes instead of her sports attire at school.
The victim then told her teacher that she was feeling unwell and upon inspection, bruises were found on the girl’s hands.
The teacher then brought her to the school’s staff room where the victim revealed that her mother had scolded her, beat her with an object and poured several cups of hot water on her after discovering she played with her mother’s makeup without permission.
The victim, who is a middle child of three siblings, also told the teacher that during the incident, her two siblings were asleep and that afterwards, she told her father about what had transpired.
After hearing all this and failing to contact her father, the teacher brought the victim to the Melaka Hospital for treatment.
