Mother, whose daughter’s burnt remains were found in pot, gets 14 years jail


SINGAPORE: When their daughter died, instead of arranging a funeral to give her a proper send-off, her parents burnt her body and hid it in a pot, preventing others from knowing about her death for 5½ years.

On Feb 7, the prosecution said an autopsy of the girl showed that her body was severely charred, with her skin completely removed. Her hands and feet could not be identified as the body was at an advanced stage of decomposition.
