The shocking moment, an eight-year-old girl is chained to a pole by her mother – as punishment for skipping school.

Horrified onlookers heard the girl crying while sucking her thumb in the car park outside the family’s apartment on Wednesday afternoon.

The girl, 8, stands chained next to a pole in Kuala Lumpur

They tried to free her but the thick chain had been secured with two padlocks – leaving the youngster stuck for over an hour before police arrived.

She told cops that her 30-year-old mum had punished her because she failed to attend mandarin classes at school in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

An onlooker who pictured the scene but asked not to be identified said: ”There is such a thing as tough love but this is taking it too far.

”The girl was quite clearly upset and didn’t know what to do. She was sucking her thumb and had tears in her eyes.

”We reported it to police and we hope that they look into the family further to make sure that the girl is not harmed again.”

The pictures show the girl in school uniform with her right ankle locked to a metal lamppost.

She is holding the pole with one hand and wiping tears from her face with the other, while her blue school bottle is on the ground by her feet.

The girl had been locked up for around an hour before neighbours called police, who arrived around ten minutes later and tracked down the mum to a nearby flat.

The unemployed woman was taken in for questioning and later released.

Mohammad Azlin Sadari from Subang Jaya district police said: ”We received a call from a man informing us of an eight-year-old Indian girl with her leg chained.

“The DCC then instructed the motorcycle patrolling unit to go to Lagoon Perdana Apartment in Bandar Sunway.

”Residents claim that the action was done by the family as punishment after the student did not attend Mandarin class.

”We have been asked to investigate further to make sure that the root cause of the action is looked into.

”The Deputy Chief of the police area confirmed the reports and circumstances surrounding the incident.”

A 12-year-old boy from Kerala became the youngest dad in India after he fathered a child with a 16-year-old.

The young mother gave birth to a baby girl a few months ago at a hospital in Ernakulam.

The children belong to Kochi, about 200 km from Kerala’s capital Thiruvananthapuram.

Police said tests confirmed that he is the father of the two-month-old baby girl. The young mother is the boy’s first cousin and were neighbours.

NDTV said on Friday, adding that paternity tests showed the eight standard student could be India’s youngest dad.

The Hindu also reported that DNA tests have confirmed that the boy is indeed the biological father of the child.

Doctors believe that the boy could have a medical condition called “precocious puberty” which made him attain puberty at an earlier age which is why he is being believed to be the youngest father in India.

The girl had alleged that she had been raped by the boy following which a case has been registered against him, they said. However, when questioned, the boy blamed the girl for the relationship and hence a case has been registered against the young mother.
