PASIR Mas district police chief Nik Aminuddin Raja Abdullah said the body of another victim in a drowning incident in Kampung Petai Dusun, Baroh Pial, Rantau Panjang was found today.

Nur Damia Qaisara Mohd Sabre, 11, was discovered at about 7am, about 2km from the location where she and her friend were reported to have fallen yesterday.

“The girl’s body was found by the public and has been taken to the Pasir Mas Hospital for a post-mortem,” he told a press conference here today.

In the incident at about 6.39pm, Nur Damia Qaisara and her friend Siti Aisyah Mazi, 11, were playing in floodwaters before they slipped and were swept away by the currents.

Siti Aisyah was rescued by the public but was later pronounced dead while being treated at Tanah Merah Hospital the same day. – Bernama, December 26, 2023
