KUALA LUMPUR – Families of two victims who died in the plane crash in Bandar Elmina, Shah Alam last week received a donation from Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

Through a post on his Facebook page, Anwar said the donation was presented by his political secretary Ahmad Farhan Fauzi yesterday while visiting the next-of-kin of the late Idris Abdol Talib @ Ramali, at Kg Ketari, Bentong.

Idris was a special officer to Pelangai assemblyman Datuk Seri Johari Harun, who was also killed in the incident.

Anwar said Farhan also visited and presented his contribution to the late Khairil Azwan Jamaluddin’s family in Felda Mempaga 1, Karak.

“I am also saddened and pray that the family will continue to be given strength and perseverance during these difficult times,” he said.

On August 17, ten individuals were killed in the plane crash.

The victims comprised six passengers and two crew members of the light aircraft while the other two were a p-hailing rider and an e-hailing driver on ground. – Bernama, August 26, 2023
