According to the Federal CID director, widespread access to online pornography and weakened family ties have led to a rise in baby dumping cases over the last five years in Malaysia. Police records show 65 babies were dumped or abandoned so far in 2010, bringing the total to 472 since 2005. More than half of the dumped babies, 258, were found dead. The police are investigating baby dumping cases seriously under laws for murder or attempted murder, though the Attorney General's Chambers makes the final charging decision.

Porn a major reason behind baby dumping, say cops
KUALA LUMPUR: Widespread access to pornography and weakened family ties have led to an increase in baby dumping in the past five years, according to Federal CID director Comm Datuk Seri Bakri Zinin. Youth today can easily have access to such material online, even through their mobile phones. Parents also need to guide and educate their children on sexuality, he said yesterday at Bukit Aman. Comm Bakri also urged the public to work closely with the police in identifying such cases He said sometimes neighbours or people in the community knew about such pregnancies but were not forthcoming. He said police records showed 65 babies were dumped or abandoned up to August bringing the total number of babies dumped or abandoned since 2005 to 472. Of the total dumped or abandoned, more than half or 258 were found dead. We do not take this lightly and will investigate such cases thoroughly. For the record we have so far arrested 21 people and have charged six of them resulting in two of them being convicted. We investigate baby dumping cases under section 302 of the Penal Code for murder or Section 307 for attempted murder. But, the final decision rests with the Attorney-General Chambers, he added
