Kelantan Ruler extends aid to family of tiger attack victim


KUALA KRAI: The Sultan of Kelantan, Sultan Muhammad V, has extended assistance to the family of Adnan Ismail, 54, who was killed in a tiger attack in Gerik, Perak, on Tuesday (Oct 15).

The contribution was delivered by Kelantan Mentri Besar Datuk Mohd Nassuruddin Daud, who visited the victim’s family home in Kampung Ngangah on Thursday (Oct 17).

Mohd Nassuruddin also presented cash and essential supplies from the state government through the Serambi Mekah Fund.
