EVEN after divorcing her husband, a single mother of two is still being abused by him, Harian Metro reported.
“We were fine at first, but once our marriage became known to his first wife, he started psychologically torturing me,” Elina, 39, said.
Unable to tolerate the abuse, Elina moved house and asked for a divorce.
However, the man asked for sexual favours in return for RM50 each time.
He even sent Elina's two sons, aged one and four, out during these “sessions”.
She also claimed to be under the spell of black magic, as she was unable to deny her ex-husband.
“I am even more convinced of this as I have found various types of oil and talisman in his possession,” she said.
Elina lodged a report with the Malaysian Muslim Consumers Association recently regarding the matter.
> The daily also reported of a boy in Terengganu who has been in a coma for the past seven months due to a hit-and-run accident.
Iman Adam Raman, eight, was hit by a speeding motorcycle in May and can only open his eyes and move his head a little.
His mother Nik Ainy Mohd said he was in stage two coma.
Police told her the motorcyclist had hit her son “like a chicken” as there were no skid marks to indicate the vehicle slamming on the brakes.
Iman has two chips implanted in his head to prevent blood clotting. He is being fed milk via a tube.
Doctors had predicted Iman would live only three days after the incident because of serious head injuries.
> An 82-year-old has been donating blood regularly to keep his headaches at bay, reported Sinar Harian.
Abu Bakar Ahmad from Pasir Mas, Kelantan, said he had been donating blood since his twenties.
“My headaches last for long periods but after donating I feel relieved. The headaches are gone,” he said.
Abu Bakar donates once every three months at Hospital Lati in Pasir Mas.
He had previously tried many methods to cure his headaches but a consultation with his doctor revealed that the headaches were due to the thickness of his blood.
He was among 300 regular blood donors who were recognised recently.
