The suspects, comprising two men and two women aged between 20 and 50 years, were detained separately over a span of three hours on Thursday afternoon. According to Melaka police chief Datuk Dzulkhairi Mukhtar, the investigation was initiated following a report from a doctor at Melaka Hospital regarding the child's demise on Wednesday at around 4 pm. Initially, the victim's mother had claimed her son had passed away due to a seizure, however, the post-mortem examination revealed that the cause of death was indeed physical injuries. All four suspects have been taken into custody for six days, starting from the day of their arrest, to aid the police in their investigation under Section 31(1)(a) of the Child Act 2001.",
