Malaysian woman in Melbourne charged with blackmailing couple for photos of dying baby daughter
Siti Nurhidayah Kamal, a 24-year-old mother of two children of her own still here in Malaysia, demanded AU$1,000 (RM2,900) from the grieving two.
Jay and Dee Windross reported that their phone was forgotten in a public toilet at Chadstone Shopping Center, and when they returned to reclaim it, the mobile was no longer there.
At the time, their daughter Amiyah was dying, and the phone contained many of the only photo memories they would have of her.
The media attention behind the missing phone was unparalleled: Even Victoria state’s premier, Daniel Andrews, joined the public appeal.
Receiving a message which they described as “remorseful” for having taken the phone, the individual on the end (aka Siti), asked for AU$1,000 to be deposited into her bank account, and only then would the phone be returned.
Later that week, their baby daughter Amiyah passed away.
On Monday, Siti was charged with blackmail, with both Jay and Dee in the courtroom, apparently “staring down” their accused blackmailer.
“The hours that we spent holding our daughter, this woman was sitting in her own house demanding money from us,” Australian outlet 9News reported Dee as saying.
“It’s despicable, it’s disgusting. Why would anyone do that?
“She knew the position we were in. You could tell by the messages.”
Police were able to track Siti down using the bank details that she provided the couple with.
This was not Siti’s first brush with illegal activities. Soon after the story broke on Malaysian shores, netizens were quick to remind the public that she is an allegedly wanted con woman in Malaysia, accused of selling fraudulent Air Asia tickets to would-be travellers.

With our Malaysian politicians saying that its not a crime if you are not caught, no wonder Malaysians are like that.
