PUTRAJAYA: The family of aviation engineer Mohd Khairul Amri Selamat could not control their emotions, bursting into tears as they listened to the announcement by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak that the Malaysia Airlines aircraft in which their loved one was on is believed to have gone down in the southern Indian Ocean.

At the Everly Putrajaya hotel here, Mohd Khairul Amri’s father Selamat Omar, who usually spoke to pressmen almost immediately after earlier press conferences, told journalists he needed a moment by himself.
