Melaka Tengah police chief ACP Christopher Patit said the boy’s 38-year-old mother lodged a police report at the Tanjung Minyak police station at 9.11 pm tonight.
“The complainant, who is also a tuition teacher, reported that on the day of the incident, at around 10.30 pm, she returned home and found her son’s head bandaged.
