I REFER to the report “Remand order for couple whose baby girl died” (The Star, Feb 16) which said that the police obtained a seven-day remand on a couple, both 22, after X-ray revealed that there were bruises all over the body of their one-and-a-half-month-old infant, who also had a fracture on one leg.
One may feel outraged over the suspected abuse but it is time for us to step back and consider the matter from the perspective of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR).
