KUALA LUMPUR: The Sessions Court has sentenced Siti Bainun Ahd Razali to 12 years in jail after she was found guilty of neglect and abuse involving Down Syndrome teenager named Bella.
Earlier, the court heard from Siti Bainun's lawyer Mohammad Farhan Maaruf who sought for a minimal sentence on grounds that his client has an elderly mother to take care of. Mohammad Farhan said Siti Bainun had never missed a court date without reason and asked the court not to impose imprisonment. "We also believe if the accused is imprisoned, our current prison facility could not cater for a person of her accord, of her physical being," the lawyer said, referring to Siti Bainun's health conditions.Bella abuse case: Siti Bainun's ex-friend burst into tears when she saw Bella, court hears
