PETALING JAYA: A next-of-kin of three Malaysia Airlines (MAS) Flight MH17 crash victims whose funeral was disrupted by an alleged assault of a press photographer, has claimed on social media that his family repeatedly told the media to leave them alone.

The man, who goes by the name Logan Retnam on Facebook, posted that despite repeatedly saying "no media", the photographer ignored their wishes and continued to take pictures of the victim's family and friends.
