SHAH ALAM - The mother of the late Muhammad Nidza Afham Mokhtar, 23, who was found dead in Sungai Klang, has left the decision regarding the autopsy results to the police.

His mother Irni Yusmira Istihat, 54, said that despite her sorrow over the loss of her fifth child out of seven siblings, she accepted the will of God.

"What happened to Afham, I accept because if there was any ill intent, it will surely be met with appropriate retribution," she said after the burial of the Nidza Afham at the Bandar Puncak Alam Islamic Cemetery on Thursday.

Irni Yusmira said that after being informed about her son's disappearance, her maternal instinct was strong, and she was confident that her child would be found.

"After returning from filing the police report on the night of the incident, I immediately performed prayers and prayed for Allah to return Afham in the same perfect condition he was in when he was born," she said.

Irni Yusmira expressed her gratitude for having her prayer answered by Allah and she was able to see her son at the Forensic Medical Unit of Shah Alam Hospital.

"My heart was at ease seeing Afham's face and when I bathed him, I saw that none of his limbs were broken.

"Alhamdulillah, Allah has given me that completeness as He did when I gave birth to him," she said.

Meanwhile, Nidza Afham's eldest brother, Nidza Irfan Mokhtar, 33, hoped that the authorities would conduct a thorough investigation to unravel the circumstances of his brother's death.

"Certainly, our family will miss the laughter and jokes of the deceased, but we accept his passing," he said.
