Court enhances jail sentence for babysitter who choked toddler to death with green chilli


PUTRAJAYA (Bernama): A babysitter who shoved a green chilli into the mouth of a toddler until he choked to death returns to jail Wednesday (Nov 13) after the Court of Appeal enhanced to 10 years the 18-month sentence imposed on her.

Justice Yaacob Md Sam who chaired a three-member panel held that the jail sentence imposed by the High Court on Asmarani Ghazali was manifestly inadequate.
