The Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court yesterday got a description of what a teenage girl with down syndrome, known as Bella, was fed during the fasting month by Rumah Bonda founder, Siti Bainun Ahd Razali.
Yasmin Nahar Mahmood, 18, a resident of Rumah Bonda, said Bella was told by Siti Bainun to finish the rice even though the teenager was full because Bella had secretly eaten and drank during Siti Bainun’s absence at the welfare home.
Bella was fed a pot of rice poured with vinegar, turmeric, salt, soy sauce, chilli and chilli pieces as well as rotten fried chicken during the fasting month. Yasmin said Siti Bainun also fed Bella 20 chillies and asked the witness or another resident of Rumah Bonda, known as Aida to count the 20 chillies. Siti Bainun is accused of allegedly neglecting and abusing the 13 -year -old.
