Remains of three Baling flood victims buried


BALING: The remains of the three who were killed when their house was swept by the currents in a flood here two days ago were buried at the Kampung Charuk Bemban Dalam Cemetery here early Wednesday (July 6).

The bodies of the pregnant Nurul Anis Abu Hassan, 23, along with her four-month-old foetus, her paralysed mother-in-law Salmah Mat Akib, 53, and brother-in-law Khairul Ikhwan Nor Azman, 14, were buried at about 5.30 am after they were brought to Surau Al-Istiqamah for the funeral prayer, which was attended by about 200 people.

All three bodies were found by the rescue team on Tuesday (July 5).

Salmah and her daughter-in-law were found embracing each other under a pile of logs about 100 metres from their house which was washed away by the floods in Kampung Iboi. Their bodies were found at about 9.30 am.

The body of the third victim, Khairul Ikhwan Nor Azman, 14, who was Salmah’s son, was found at 11.55 am not far from the location where the two bodies were found earlier.
