How high were the poisoned snacks tied in the orchard?

Question

Accepted Answer

The poisoned snacks were tied at a height of 1.37 metres in the orchard.

The farmer involved in the incident where two siblings died after consuming poisoned snacks has raised questions about the accessibility of the poisoned food. He stated that the snacks were secured at a height of 1.37 metres within his 0.8-hectare orchard. This detail was presented to challenge the claim that the children obtained the snacks from his property.
Accessibility of the Poisoned Snacks

Uzair Shafawi Hasbullah, 34, questioned how the two victims, aged two and three, could have reached the snacks. He highlighted that the snacks were tied high up and situated in a bushy area near a fence, not by the roadside. He was on duty guarding his cows when the incident occurred and expressed confusion about the children's ability to access the items.
Farmer's Remand and Investigation

Following the incident on July 7 in Kampung Padang Ubi, Kulim, Uzair Shafawi was detained and remanded for eight days to aid police investigations. He reported full cooperation with the authorities during this period. However, he voiced his dissatisfaction that the children's grandparents and mother were not subjected to investigation for alleged neglect.
Social Media Response and Alternative Methods

Uzair Shafawi uploaded a nine-minute video to Facebook to clarify his side of the story and counter slanders he faced on social media and within the village. The video garnered significant engagement, with 53,000 shares, 68,000 likes, and 10,000 comments. He has since ceased using poisoned snacks to deter monkeys from his crops and now employs metal cages provided by the Department of Wildlife and National Parks (Perhilitan).
