  "account": "Family members of the Malaysian victims gathered at a briefing session at Putra Palace to discuss the case of Malaysian nationals who remain missing or trapped in the aftermath of the massive flood incident along the Nepal border today. (Photo by Bernama) PUTRAJAYA: After almost five days of intense waiting, the family of N Kalaiselvi, reported missing in the sudden flash flood and landslides in Nepal, pleaded for the government to bring back the victims regardless of their condition. Her son, Kritikaa Joyce De Brito, acknowledged the diminishing hope of the family as the chances of survival for trapped victims in the disaster zone become increasingly slim. \"Even if found, they might be buried in the forest or under the thick mud ... the chances of survival are very slim,\" she said after attending the closed war memorial ceremony at Putra Palace. \"Therefore, our request is that they be brought back, no matter the condition, whether alive or not, we hope they are returned to us in Malaysia.\" Kalaiselvi, 65, was among 27 Malaysian nationals who were reported to have lost contact while on a religious pilgrimage to Mount Kailash in Tibet through a local tour agency, before the tragedy struck in the Rasuwa district on Wednesday. At the war memorial ceremony, all the families present reached an agreement for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to dispatch any official memorabilia and accurate information to the closest relatives continuously to prevent the spread of speculation or false information to the public, which could disturb the emotional state of the victim's families. \"For now, the ministry is very careful about what it puts out to the public, and we understand this as we want to prevent any speculation,\" she said. Earlier, Putra Palace confirmed that 72 Malaysian nationals were safe in Darchen, China, receiving consular assistance, while 55 others were still unaccounted for in Nepal.",
