KUALA LUMPUR – For the past two months, food delivery rider Syed Izzat Izzudin, who was killed after being hit by a fallen tree branch yesterday, was his family’s sole breadwinner, after his father could not work following surgery, said his mother, Inang Suhana Abu Bakar.
In the 4pm incident, Izzat, 20, was on his way from Jalan Damai Jasa towards Taman Len Seng when he was hit by a fallen tree branch near Petronas Alam Damai, Cheras.
Inang Suhana, 42, said Izzat, who died at the scene, was a filial son in helping the family.
“I am sad beyond words and I am still shocked over his death. I watched the news on television and saw reports on social media (on the incident) but did not expect it had happened to my own child,” she said today.
Izzat’s remains will be buried at the Alam Damai Muslim Cemetery once a post-mortem at Hospital Cancelor Tuanku Muhriz, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia is completed. – Bernama, April 16, 2021
