Shahrizal, 40, brother of Fikri Saliman, 24, said the incident felt like a nightmare. “As his next of kin, we just want to know what happened to him,” he told reporters at his home in Kampung Parit Kuda, Semerah.
He said the family only learned of the incident involving Fikri and the family of his fiancee, Putri Balqis Izzati Abdul Rahman, 18, through a cousin of theirs at about noon yesterday.
The water surge tragedy on Saturday involved eight victims: Putri Balqis, her father, four sisters aged between 4 and 16, a brother aged 6, and Fikri. Six bodies have been found so far, with two others still missing, police said.
Shahrizal said his brother had just recovered from a fever and had gone to the waterfall by motorcycle. “He told us he would be back on Saturday or Sunday as he was working on Monday,” he said.
Shahrizal said he would be leaving for Terengganu tonight with a few congregants from the Kampung Parit Kuda mosque to help search for his missing brother.
