<p><p>According to the <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.nst.com.my/news/crime-courts/2024/02/1008387/hospital-staff-leaves-behind-daughter-car-five-year-old-girl-dies">New Straits Times</a>, Shah Alam district police chief ACP Mohd Iqbal Ibrahim said the police were informed of the incident by a medical officer at the hospital at 8pm the same day.</p>
<p>He said preliminary investigations found that the victim was left by her mother in the car by accident, after she was picked up from a nearby daycare centre at about 2pm.</p>
<p>&#8220;The victim was asleep in the car and the engine was turned off. The 34-year-old mother, who is also a hospital staff, only realised that she had left the child behind after her husband contacted her at 6pm.</p>
<p>&#8220;The unconscious victim was then taken to the hospital&#8217;s Emergency Department and efforts to resuscitate her failed. She was confirmed dead by the medical officers there,&#8221; Mohd Iqbal said in a statement today, 1 February.</p>

<p><p>However, he said initial checks on the victim&#8217;s body did not reveal any external or internal injuries.</p>
<p>The investigation is being conducted under Section 31(1)(a) of the Child Act for negligence﻿, reported <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2024/02/01/child-dies-after-being-left-in-parked-car-at-shah-alam-hospital">The Star</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;We advise the public to be more careful after fetching their children from school or daycare centres to prevent accidentally leaving them in vehicles,&#8221; added Mohd Iqbal.</p>
<p>He urged anyone with information on the case to contact investigating officer Insp Syer Aidid at +6013-6544996.</p>
