Slain border agency officer’s remains to be buried in Tumpat tonight, says home minister

The remains of a Malaysian Border Control and Protection Agency officer, allegedly killed by her husband, are to be buried in Tumpat, Kelantan, tonight, according to Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail. The officer's remains were transported from Nilai, Negeri Sembilan, where she was found dead last Thursday at Kuala Lumpur International Airport.

Her two young children, aged five and six, are currently being cared for by her older sister. The suspect had recently been released from prison after serving a sentence for a drug-related offence. The Home Ministry's Kampung Angkat Madani and Sekolah Angkat Madani initiatives have also provided financial assistance to improve public facilities and schools in the region, with the officer's community receiving RM500,000 and RM100,000 respectively.
