Child Abuse Ruling in Malaysia

A seven year old boy from Klang was at the center of a Magistrate courtroom drama Tuesday morning when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him. The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents, so the judge awarded custody to his aunt. The boy,however, stated that his aunt beat him more than his parents and refused to live there. Therefore, the judge suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried out that they beat him more than anyone. In a unprecedented move, the judge dramatically allowed the boy to choose who should have custody of him. Custody was finally granted to the MALAYSIAN NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAM this morning as the boy firmly believes that they are not capable of beating anyone.

That's all the news for this morning. I'm Apai Kapal Karam reporting from the newsroom Jalan P. Ramlee!

G'day!
