JOHOR BARU: A six-year-old boy, who was left alone to take care of three other siblings, decided to put his three-month-old baby sister in a travelling bag before leaving her at the void deck of an apartment block in Larkin.
The baby girl was left alone for more than half an hour before one of the residents saw her trying to crawl out of the bag.
The man immediately contacted police and rescued the baby.
Police brought the mother and her four children to the police station, located just a few metres away from the apartment block.

However he added, the grandmother had left the children aged between three months and six years at home as she had an appointment with a doctor at a nearby clinic.
ACP Zainuddin said the woman informed the police that her husband was away working in a resort at Pulau Sibu in Mersing, and she needed a job badly.
