Pallbearer sad uncle’s remains delayed

SEPANG: L/Klp Mohd Sadiq Zakariah had always wanted to do something for those who died in the MH17 flight. He was honoured when his chance came after he was chosen as a pallbearer for the remains of the victims.

However, Mohd Sadiq, from the Ceremonial Unit of the 1st Battalion Royal Malay Regiment (1 RAMD) was sad that the remains of his uncle, chief steward Mohd Ghafar Abu Bakar, were not among those that came home yesterday.
