A five-year-old girl found lying naked in her mother's car was not raped but had strangulation marks on her neck and her mouth and nose had been blocked before she died, according to the post-mortem report.
Sentul OCPD Asst Comm Ahmad Sofian Md Yassin said there were several bruises and cigarette butt marks on the little girl’s body.
The girl's mother was arrested after the child was pronounced dead at the Selayang Hospital at 12.25am on Wednesday.
Her mother claimed that she left her daughter in the car for an hour while she went to get groceries at a sundry shop in Kepong on Tuesday night.
She claimed she found her daughter lying motionless and naked in the car when she returned and rushed her to the Selayang Hospital.
Doctors tried to revive her but to no avail. Noticing fresh external wounds on the girl, they immediately alerted the police.
Police are now looking for the mother’s boyfriend, who is believed to have gone into hiding.
ACP Ahmad Sofian said the man from Batu Pahat had worked as an illegal DVD seller and owned a telecommunication outlet.
He had been living with the mother and daughter for the past one year at their home in Taman Fadason, Jinjang.
Investigations also revealed that the man had previous police records for theft and criminal intimidation.
