Girl, 5, chokes to death on rambutan

SEGAMAT: A five-year-old girl died after choking on a rambutan fruit.
Anis Salwa was eating the fruit with her mother when the incident occurred at about 3pm at their home in Kampung Jawa on Wednesday.

Suddenly, she was gasping for air. Her mother rushed her to the Segamat Hospital but she died while on the way there.

Her 44-year-old mother, known only as Esah, said her daughter usually sucked the juice from the fruit.

“Today, she wanted to eat the fruit.

“I am shocked. I can’t believe my daughter is gone forever,’ she said in between sobs.
