Previously, the boy was first charged on 23 Feb at the Magistrate’s Court in Jelebu, Malaysia.
At the time, he was charged with two counts of incest for having intercourse with his underage sister.
New Straits Times reports that the latter gave birth to a healthy baby boy at the family home in Jempol.
When medical officers went to the house, they discovered the girl lying on a bed.
Meanwhile, the newborn was in a basin with his umbilical cord still attached.
Afterwards, the medical team brought them both to the health clinic and, subsequently, the hospital.
