AN INDONESIAN woman accused of burning her eight-year-old step-granddaughter with an iron and a litany of other abuse was arrested and faces up to five years in prison, police said.
The girl's father reported the alleged abuse to police, saying his daughter had also been burnt with a metal spatula and cut several times in the head with small gardening shears.
"We questioned and arrested the woman, who will be charged under child protection laws," South Jakarta chief detective Hermawan said.
"The woman said she never accepted her son's second marriage nor the child he had with his second wife."
Mr Hermawan said the girl suffered burns on her chest, legs and feet, and had several cuts and bruises to the head.
"Her condition is improving, but she is still suffering trauma."
Police believe the 47-year-old woman, who is in custody, had abused the child over nine months.
The girl's case is also being handled by the national commission on child protection, which is providing her with psychological care.
