Subang Jaya deputy police chief Fairus Jaafar said officers were dispatched promptly after receiving a distress call at around 12.30pm.

“Investigations found the victim lying face-up on the fifth floor of the building after falling from the babysitter’s home,” he said in a statement today.

Fairus said further investigations found no criminal elements involved.

“The victim’s mother was taking care of another child who was under home quarantine, and the father was at work during the incident.

“Preliminary findings indicate that the victim climbed out of the window, which had no safety grills installed,” he said.

A medical officer at the scene confirmed the girl’s death.

Police have also recorded a statement from the caregiver for further investigation.

The case is being investigated under Section 31(1)(a) of the Child Act 2001, which carries a maximum penalty of a RM50,000 fine, up to 20 years’ imprisonment, or both upon conviction.
