IPOH, July 17 — Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI) is assisting the family of its former student Nur Farah Kartini Abdullah, 25, throughout their stay in Tanjung Malim following her murder.
Its vice-chancellor Prof Datuk Md Amin Md Taff said the assistance was to lighten the family’s burden while handling matters related to their deceased daughter during this difficult time.
“UPSI provides them with accommodation and transportation to facilitate their visits to hospitals, police stations, courts, and other related locations.
“UPSI also provides several buses for staff and students to accompany the deceased to the cemetery as a gesture of last respects,” he said in a statement today.
The remains of Farah, who hailed from Miri, Sarawak, were found in a palm oil plantation in Kampung Sri Kledang, Hulu Selangor, at 6pm on July 15. She was reported missing on July 10 after delivering a rental car to a customer.
UPSI, via Kolej Awang Had Salleh and its Islamic Centre, organised a Yassin recitation and tahlil ceremony for the victim this morning at Masjid Al-Mursyidin on the Azlan Shah campus, which Amin, UPSI staff, and students attended.
