DUNGUN: The father of deceased university student Khairil Anwar Jamaludin says he never expected to lose another son in an accident.
Jamaludin Hussein, 53, from Kampung Pandan, Kuala Lumpur, said his eldest son also died in a road accident seven years ago.
"I no longer have sons...His brother died on Oct 3, 2017. I am now left with three daughters," he told reporters on Thursday (Oct 10) at the Dungun Hospital here.
Jamaludin said the last time he was with Khairil Anwar was when he drove him to the Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) campus in Dungun last week to start his third-semester studies.
" He just wanted to treat his mother to a meal, buy her gold and take pictures," he said, adding that the day before, Khairil Anwar recorded a video of him making fried rice for the family, which he posted on Instagram.
Jamaludin said his son's remains would be brought home and buried at the Ukay Perdana Muslim Cemetery in Ampang, Selangor.
In the 7.35pm incident, three UiTM Dungun campus students died and another critically injured when two motorcycles they were riding were hit by an SUV on Jalan Pantai.
The 49-year-old female suspect from Kampung Sura Tengah is believed to be mentally unstable and has been remanded for four days. – Bernama
