SHAH ALAM, Jan 4 — The Menteri Besar Selangor (Incorporated) or MBI has handed over cash aid of RM1,000 to the Gombak fire victim’s family who lost their children in the incident.

Its Corporate Social Responsibility head Ahmad Azri Zainal Nor said two other families who were involved in the incident also received RM500 each and hygiene kits.

“As a gesture of concern, we handed over cash donations to the victim’s family during our visit this morning. We will also consider other assistance including schooling items.

“We will try to expedite the process and hopefully it will be able to reduce their burden,” he said when contacted today.

At 3.54am, the Malaysian Fire and Rescue Department (JBPM) received an emergency call about a fire at a terraced house in Kampung Simpang Tiga, Gombak where they found the charred remains of the two siblings in one of the rooms.

The victims were identified as Nur Syaza Alfisya Muhammad Faizan, 9, and her six-year-old brother Muhammad Al Qayyum.
