Suspecting that one of her four children, aged eight to 11, stole her money, a woman made them look for the cash as she splashed hot water on them.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Tin Shu Min said that on July 2, 2022, the woman woke her children up to shower and get them ready for madrasah, or Islamic religious school. The DPP said: “As her children continued to deny taking the money, she went back to the kitchen to refill the tumbler with hot water and splash it in the direction of her children. She repeated this process twice more for a total of four splashes, one for each child.

As the woman removed her son’s clothes before showering, she noticed burns on his body. She then checked and realised her daughters had suffered similar burns. She cried and applied medicated oil on them. She later phoned her elder sister to come over, and an ambulance was called.
