My friend’s father got murdered. His body was found together with his burnt car in an oil palm estate. His family found out about the news when they went to the police station to report of his disappearance. My friend’s dad did not return home after he went to meet his friends yesterday. My friend was devastated.
This is one news every one would not want to hear and this is also a horrible way to begin a new chapter in life for this new year. Heartfelt condolences to him and his family. It was such a pity because it also means I won’t have the chance to drink his trademark coffee anymore since he’s the only one running his kopitiam and he did not pass his coffee making skills to any of his children. Even the healthy ones are not spared because they can also lose their life all of a sudden.
I was drinking coffee in his shop 2 days ago and now he’s lying in the mortuary. His family is still waiting for his body to be released by the forensic department. It kinda shocked me when I saw his charred myvi on RTM mandarin news because I saw that car every afternoon. Incidents like these made me re-evaluate my own safety every time I step my foot outside. The streets are not safe anymore.
