20 Sabah teens in hospital for drinking paint thinner

KOTA KINABALU: Rubber tapper Martin Laissu still cannot wrap his head around the fact that his son drank thinner in what could have been a dare among students in Pitas district recently.

“I just don’t understand why he would do that. I mean I don’t understand why anyone would think of such an idea. Maybe they were challenging one another,” said the 44-year-old.
