IPOH - The Perak Tengah police are seeking information on four siblings, including a 10-month-old baby, who are believed to have been abandoned in front of the guardhouse at the Perak Tengah District Council (MDPT) administrative complex here yesterday.
Perak Tengah district police chief Superintendent Hafezul Helmi Hamzah said they received information about the incident from the district’s Social Welfare Department (JKM) officer at around 5.39 pm.
"Two boys, 11 and three, a 10-month-old baby boy, and a 6-year-old girl were found abandoned.
