University student electrocuted at fish pond during practical training
Rubayyi Razali, 27, a second-year biodiversity student, and the 49-year-old fish pond owner were found by Rubayyi's husband when he went to fetch her.
A university student and her fish pond owner spouse tragically died after suffering electrocution at a fish rearing site in Pantai Air Tawar, Pahang, on Wednesday afternoon. The victim, 27-year-old Rubayyi Razali, was participating in a biodiversity degree practical training session when the incident occurred. Her 28-year-old husband, Wan Muhammad Naim Wan Hussin, discovered them unconscious at around 1pm.
Wan Naim immediately sought assistance from nearby breeders, who suggested that the women may have been electrocuted due to the presence of an electrical wire and flowing water near the area. Rubayyi, who had been at the pond since August 10, was set to complete her training on October 2. She is expecting her second child, who is four months old, and has another son aged two.
Besut police chief Rozaime Ab Rahim confirmed that both women were pronounced dead at the scene, and the cause of death is currently under investigation.
