KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 22 — Soh Cher Wei (picture), the 28-year-old teacher who was engaged to be married to Teoh Beng Hock, gave birth to a baby boy by Caesarian section, a source close to the family told The Malaysian Insider.
She was earlier taken to the Hospital Batu Pahat at 9am.
“He looks like his mum, got fair skin,” Teoh Lee Lan, younger sister to the late Selangor political aide, told The Malaysian Insider this afternoon.
She declined to disclose the time of birth for privacy and only said he was born in the morning and weighs about 3kg. She added that Soh is not able to leave the hospital just yet.
Lee Lan, 29, said the family had not had a chance to cuddle the newly-born baby who has yet to receive his name.
“We are happy as both of them are healthy and normal...We hope his birth can bring good news got his father’s case, justice for Beng Hock.
“We hope he can bring happiness and hope to his mum and both families,” Lee Lan spoke on behalf of the Sohs and Teohs.
“We hope he can grow up safely and have a normal life,” she said and blessed him with peace and health.
Soh was inducted into the Teoh family according to traditional Chinese rites last October, and was two months pregnant when her fiancé was found dead.
The couple was scheduled to register their marriage last July 17, which was dashed following Teoh’s untimely death.
The 30-year-old political secretary to Selangor executive councillor, Ean Yong Hian Wah, had been questioned overnight by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) investigating claims his boss had misused state funds.
His body was found sprawled on a 5th-floor corridor outside the MACC office in Plaza Masalam, Shah Alam the next day. The mysterious circumstances surrounding his death are still being investigated by the coroner’s court.
