Tears on girl’s hymen, court told Doctor: Cause likely to be penetration by a blunt object

KUALA LUMPUR: A doctor told the Magistrates Court here that she had discovered old tears on the hymen of a 10-year-old girl who had allegedly been molested by her grandfather.

Clinical specialist Dr Ida Lilywati Md Latar, who had examined the girl last year, said there were tears at the nine o’clock position which were consistent with penetration by a blunt object.
