Update (15 Nov): Mohamed Aliff Mohamed Yusoff, the 27-year-old man who allegedly slammed a 9-month-old baby’s against a van’s floorboard has been charged with murder, reports TODAY Online.

Babies are precious creatures that require caretakers to be delicate and extra careful.

One man’s recent actions, however, were the complete opposite of that.

The baby was just 9 months old. He passed away a day later.

Baby was reportedly son of suspect’s girlfriend

According to The Straits Times, the accident happened between 10pm Thursday (7 Nov) and 12.15pm Friday (8 Nov) at a multistorey carpark along Yishun Street 81.

 

Mohamed Aliff Mohamed Yusoff, who works in the renovation industry, had slammed the 9-month-old baby’s head against the floorboard of a van, causing “serious injuries”.

To make things worse, the baby reportedly did not share any blood ties with the man. Shinmin Daily reports that the infant was the child of the suspect’s girlfriend.

According to Facebook posts by family members, the baby passed away on Friday (8 Nov) and was buried on Sunday (10 Nov).

May face 10 years’ jail if found guilty

The 27-year-old man has been charged with “voluntarily causing grievous hurt” to the young infant.

If found guilty, the man could be jailed for up to 10 years, and fined or caned.

Family members mourn baby’s passing on Facebook
