  "account": "KAMPAR, September 28 - A 70-year-old woman was discovered dead in her home in Menglembu, Malaysia, with a stab wound to her chest, according to Perak police chief Datuk Mohd Alwi Zainal Abidin. The victim's daughter, aged 49, is suspected of committing the act, as she has a history of mental health treatment. The police were alerted about the incident by the victim's son-in-law at around 7pm. The victim had recently returned home from an old folks' home in Pusing and was being cared for by her daughter and son-in-law. The daughter remains in custody, and police plan to remand her until October 4 to aid the investigation under Section 302 of the Penal Code. Authorities also seized a knife believed to have been used in the stabbing. Separately, police in Kuala Kangsar received a report on September 23 of another elderly woman's death, who was found dead in her home in Kampung Cheh Kati. The victim's 15-year-old son was subsequently sent to Hospital Bahagia Ulu Kinta for further examination and has been remanded alongside his 44-year-old father to assist in the ongoing investigation.",
