JEMPOL – The body believed to be that of a six-year-old boy who was reported missing in Johor Bahru last week was discovered buried in a bushy area in Rompin here on Monday. Negeri Sembilan Police Chief Datuk Ahmad Dzaffir Mohd Yussof said the Jempol District Police Headquarters (IPD) received information about the discovery around 4.30pm. He said initial investigations revealed that the child had been reported missing in Taman Bukit Indah, Johor Bahru, on July 24 and the case was initially investigated under Section 31(1)(a) of the Child Act 2001 and classified as a missing person. 'Following the missing person report, the Johor Contingent Police arrested a man believed to be the victim's biological father, aged 36, at around 12 noon on the same day (July 24) in Johor Bahru, which subsequently led to the discovery of the child's body,' he said in a statement last night. The victim was suspected to have been murdered before being buried. 'The case is now being investigated under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder, which carries the death penalty or a maximum prison sentence of 40 years and whipping, upon conviction,' he said. The body was sent to Hospital Rembau for a post-mortem. Previously, the police sought public assistance to locate the missing child, who was reported missing while at a kopitiam in Taman Bukit Indah. Iskandar Puteri District Police Chief Assistant Commissioner M Kumarasan earlier said the boy's father lodged a police report at about 2.15am on July 26. According to the initial description, the child was approximately 110 centimetres tall, weighed 19 kilograms, had a dark complexion and a sharp nose.

Police nab suspect of robbing three food deliverers
JERTIH: Police have successfully solved three robbery cases that occurred in several villages in the Besut district after arresting a man in a raid in Kampung Gong Medang here, last Monday. Besut district police chief Supt Azamuddin Ahmad @ Abu said the 32-year-old suspect, who was suspected of being involved in knife-wielding robberies since last month, was arrested by a team from the Criminal Investigation Division of the Besut district police headquarters (IPD). "The suspect was arrested following three robberies involving three female victims, all of whom were food deliverers between June 24 and July 20. "The suspect's modus operandi was to identify female vendors who provided delivery service and would give addresses at unoccupied houses in remote areas in Kampung Gong Medang and Kampung Tembila," he told reporters at a press conference at the Besut IPD here today. Azamuddin said when the victim arrived at the given location, the suspect would approach the victim's car and brandish a knife before robbing the victim's jewellery. He added, the suspect managed to rob the jewellery belonging to the first and second victims, involving an estimated loss of RM30,000 and RM200 in cash. "However, the suspect failed to rob the third victim because the victim resisted, causing the victim to suffer injuries to both hands," he said. Azamuddin said following the arrest, the police also managed to seize two melted gold bars weighing 82.26 grammes believed to belong to two victims, a Honda City and two mobile phones belonging to the suspect. He added that checks found that the suspect had a past criminal record related to robbery and was tested negative for drugs. He said the suspect, who is married, was remanded to assist in the investigation under Section 392/397 of the Penal Code and Section 394 of the same act. – BERNAMA

‘Paperless health ecosystem': Delhi CM to launch NextGen HIMS today
Starting today, a patient's medical history will be accessible across all the government hospitals in Delhi as Chief Minister Rekha Gupta rolls out the NextGen Hospital Information Management System (HIMS). The rollout comes around seven years after former chief minister Arvind Kejriwal first announced the plan to launch the system in the Capital. However, the project was hit by delays, leading to political sparring. The HIMS, which will be launched at the Delhi Secretariat, aims to provide paperless and technology-enabled healthcare services in the city. Officials from the state health department said the software, at the heart of the system, has been developed in collaboration with the Union Ministry of Health & Family Welfare. 'NextGen HIMS will ensure a fully digitised, integrated, and paperless health ecosystem,' an official underlined. The rollout will include 20 digital modules such as OPD/IPD registration, laboratory and radiology integration, electronic medical records, inventory and operation theatre management, and centralised hospital dashboards. Delhi Health Minister Pankaj Singh had earlier said the HIMS has all these modules and more. 'It will be fully integrated with the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission, enabling consent-based, interoperable digital health records, ABHA (Ayushman Bharat Health Account) ID integration, and patient-friendly mobile applications,' Singh had said. Officials at the state health department have now said that training for OPD and IPD modules has already been completed across all the government hospitals in the city, with the remaining modules set to be implemented in a phased manner. 'Over 93 lakh ABHA IDs have already been generated, laying the groundwork for unified electronic health records for Delhi's citizens,' an official said. The project was first announced in 2018 by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government. Kejriwal had then spoken of the plans to roll out a unique e-health card, which was to be launched in 2019, and a cloud-based HIMS covering all Delhi government hospitals. The former CM had expected the system to be launched by 2021. The e-health card, a QR code-based card to collate clinical details of all patients in one place, was to be tied in with the HIMS. The initiative, however, was stuck in the planning stage for a long time. Last year, the AAP and the BJP had locked horns over the NextGen HIMS. BJP's Vijender Gupta, who was the Leader of Opposition in the Delhi Assembly, had written to Atishi, the chief minister at the time, demanding the implementation of the system with the Union government's software at its foundation. In the letter to Atishi, Gupta said that the effectiveness of the software used by the Centre, which was developed to facilitate smooth hospital management, prevent misuse of public funds, and improve the entire healthcare system, was evident. Saurabh Bharadwaj, who was serving as the health minister, had hit back at the Opposition, saying that the non-availability of the requisite software platform for the system due to a 'U-turn' by the bureaucracy had led to the delay in the implementation. On Thursday, CM Rekha Gupta will also inaugurate 34 Ayushman Arogya Mandirs and eight Jan Aushadhi Kendras online, taking the total number of operational centres in Delhi to 67. Eight new Jan Aushadhi Kendras will also be launched across major government hospitals in the city, increasing the total to 25 centres under the Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Jan Aushadhi Pariyojana (PMBJP). These centres will offer over 2,000 generic medicines and 300 surgical items at prices 50–80% lower than market brands, significantly reducing the out-of-pocket health expenditure for patients.
