Inhuman Doings!

TELUK BAHANG - Kehadiran sekumpulan burung gagak yang mengerumuni sesuatu di tepi jalan Batu Feringghi berdekatan kawasan Pulau Asmara di sini bukanlah asing bagi tukang sapu Majlis Perbandaran Pulau Pinang (MPPP), T. Verappa, 36.

Namun, semalam dia berasa tidak sedap hati lalu berpatah balik untuk melihat apa yang sebenarnya dikerumuni oleh kumpulan gagak tersebut.

Mengejutkan, kumpulan gagak itu sedang mematuk mayat seorang bayi yang masih bertali pusat dalam keadaan tertiarap di sebatang longkang di situ.

"Walaupun saya sudah terlajak kira-kira 100 meter dari tempat itu, tapi saya berasa lain macam pula sebab jumlah burung itu terlalu banyak.

"Saya hampir pengsan apabila mendapati benda yang dikerumuni itu merupakan mayat seorang bayi lelaki yang cukup sifat," katanya ketika di temui semalam.

Menurut Verappa, ketika kejadian pada pukul 10.30 pagi itu, dia baru selesai menyapu sampah di kawasan berhampiran.

I think most of you had read about this heart wrenching news yesterday.

Eventhough I do not know this person, but my heart ache whenever I see the picture of that poor baby's body thrown by the roadside.

I don't understand, how could a person (or two) be so cruel and mean to be able to do such thing to their own baby? How could a person turned so heartless or maybe my husband is right, they have no heart at all. If they knew that they do not want the baby at the first place, why don't they just abort it instead of doing such inhuman thing.

How could a mother do this to her own child after 9 months of having him in her womb? How could a mother do this to her own child after going through so much pain during labor? A lot of questions pinning in my mind looking for answers on how could a mother do things that even animals wouldn't do.

I wonder how they feel when they found out that the body of their baby had been surrounded by crows. I wonder how they feel looking at the picture of their child lying helplessly on the ground. Do they feel a thing? Or the only feeling they have now is fear? Fear of being caught?

As they say, abortion is a sin but doing this is even worst than abortion. They bring a life into this world and then kill it in such inhuman way.

Why can't they leave the poor child at a temple, mosque or something instead of throwing him away like that? Or maybe give him away as I'm sure many childless couple out there who wanted children very much but could have it.

Sigh~ I really don't know what to say anymore but I believe in KARMA, may whoever that did this gets the punishments that they deserve. The God is up there watching what they do.
