Malaysian entertainer Betty Banafe remains locked in a legal fight over custody of her child. In comments reported from Kuala Lumpur, she described the case as a very long struggle that has seen tears fall inside the courtroom. Her remarks opened with 'Alhamdulillah', an expression of thanks despite everything the process has cost her. Custody battles in Malaysia can run for years while judges weigh what serves the child best. Banafe has clearly decided to keep pressing her claim rather than step back. The courtroom, it seems, will remain the setting of her fight for some time yet.
