THE child custody tussle between Siti Fauziah Abd Rahman and her husband Mohsen Mohd Noor continues to grab the attention of Malay newspaper readers. 

A Berita Harian reader, Ruslan A. Rahman, blamed the couple’s problem on the lack of uniformity and communication between the Syariah courts of Alor Star, which sided with Mohsen, and Kuala Terengganu, which ruled that Siti should be given custody.
