KUANTAN: After 10 months of wondering what happened to Muhammad Iman Aqmar Dzulkarnain, 24, his family finally found closure after his remains were found in a car that was pulled out of Sungai Api-Api in Nenasi on Saturday (July 23).

Azmawati Ab Kadir, 55, the mother of Muhammad Iman Aqmar who was reported missing on Oct 30 last year said the family was devastated by the news but they finally have answers as to what happened to him.

"I pray that God will give me a sign and when I found out last night, I feel relieved, otherwise every morning I will wake up wondering where my son is.

"I kept thinking about him, his whereabouts. Alhamdulillah God answered my prayers and I am very grateful," she told Bernama when contacted here today.

The mother of two said that she was contacted by an unknown individual yesterday who informed her that her son had been found, before being contacted by the police.
