IT is now a week day since Aliff Syukri posted a video on his Instagram account where he is seen to be treating his nine-year old daughter’s wounds, after caning her for allegedly removing her headscarf in the presence of strangers. It has been seen by over 953,000 viewers.
We have sought advice and understand from a religious viewpoint that the punishment meted out was not proportionate to the wrong committed by the child. The decision to wear or not wear religious attire is an extremely personal choice, and parents are encouraged to support their children in their religious learnings. In this case, the manner in which the punishment was carried out is beyond what is acceptable within prescribed Islamic teachings, where force may only be applied as a final resort.
We have since discovered that despite the protections afforded by the Child Act, the process of reporting child abuse is difficult and highly procedure driven. In this case the culpable party posted his abusive conduct for the titillation of his followers on Instagram and the post itself has been the subject of more than one article on https://www.ohmymedia.cc and yet, without a formal report no action will be taken despite the fact that the evidence is there for the entire world to see.
