KINABATANGAN - A six-month-old girl was killed and her mother seriously injured after they were slashed by a man believed to be a relative in Kampung Ubi Sungai Pauh here yesterday.

District police chief Supt Dzulbaharin Ismail said the baby died on the spot due to serious head injuries sustained in the 2 pm incident.

"Her 35-year-old foreigner mother suffered serious injuries to the back of the neck and her left ear was almost severed,” he said in a statement today.
