I did not expect them to go to the river, says father of three boys feared drowned

KUALA BERANG (Bernama): The father of three brothers who are feared drowned at Sungai Terengganu, at Kampung Kuala Telemong here on Wednesday (May 27), says he did not expect his children to go there without his knowledge.

Mohd Ismail, 64, said he was sweeping at the mosque compound when villagers asked him to go to the river, and he thought it was because his coconuts that he planted near the river had been stolen.
