JOHOR BARU: Little Mohd Adha Basir, who was found dead with a cord around his neck at his father’s garage on Wednesday, was so eager to celebrate Hari Raya that he pestered his mother to bake cookies as soon as Ramadan started. 

His mother, Norwasita Abdul Aziz, said her four-and-a-half-year-old son had asked why she had not started baking cookies when others had done so.
