Dad Nurul was found unconscious by his wife, Azura, with their baby lying under his arm on Thursday.

At first, Azura thought there had been a gas leak in the family’s home in Melaka, in southern Malaysia, local media reports.

She told media: “I knew something was wrong even though there was no blood.

“My husband was unresponsive, and our baby, still breathing at that moment, was trapped beneath his arm. However, the baby appeared extremely weak and pale.”

The tot, who had turned blue from the lack of oxygen, was rushed to hospital but died while receiving treatment.

Relatives said that the night before, Nurul had complained of chest pains.

The couple had reportedly waited 15 years for Muhammad, their third child.

Cases of infants dying from asphyxiation while sleeping or cuddling with a parent are sadly not unique.

Accidental suffocation is identified as the primary cause of fatal injuries among infants under one year old in the US, as reported by the National Institutes of Health.

It is not recommended to co-sleep with babies, especially if they were born premature or with a low birth weight, as per guidance from the NHS.

Falling asleep with a baby on a sofa or chair is said to greatly increase the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).

Brit backpacker, 25, found dead in Malaysia one week after vanishing as his phone went dead & family flew out to find him

It comes as missing Brit backpacker Jordan Johnson-Doyle was found dead in Malaysia in early June.

Jordan, 25, from Southport, was last seen at a bar in capital Kuala Lumpur but then vanished – sparking a frantic search from family and police.

Jordan had been travelling around south-east Asia while working remotely for an American software company.

Malaysian police confirmed on June 5 that a body was found at the base of a lift shaft, and had been identified as Jordan.

Kuala Lumpur police chief Rusdi Mohd Isa stated that they “received a report of a man discovered lying on his back in the elevator shaft on the ground floor of a construction area.”

He added that the post-mortem examination revealed “the cause of death was a chest injury sustained from a fall from height”.

The death is not being treated as suspicious.

A FCDO spokesperson said at the time that the Foreign Office was “supporting the family of a British man who died in Malaysia”.
