The couple, who are both 26 and cannot be named due to a gag order, appeared in a district court via video link, where they were charged with murder with common intention. Court documents show that the couple allegedly caused the death of the girl, who is the biological daughter of the woman, between Nov 6 and 10 this year at a Housing Board flat. In court on Thursday, the woman requested to see her three sons, and said she has joint custody of two of them with her ex-husband. As one of her children is starting Primary 1 soon, she requested for bail so she could pass some relevant documents to her ex-husband. The other accused man also requested to see his son via video link. The district judge told them no bail was available, but said the investigation officer could assist with their requests. Records with the Registry of Muslim Marriages show that the couple were married in April this year. The woman's first marriage was in 2013. The girl was unconscious when taken to Ng Teng Fong General Hospital by ambulance on Tuesday at around 11am, according to the police. She was pronounced dead at 12.40pm.
