KUALA LUMPUR: She was praying for
her policeman husband to return home safely but her hopes were dashed
when his body was discovered some 15 hours later.
Thirty-three-year-old Nadia Khamis, who was seven months’ pregnant,
could not contain her sadness after being informed that Insp Mohd
Nafzanee Mohd Adnan, 36, was found in a drain several metres away after
he was involved in a fatal accident which also claimed the life of
another man.
In Monday’s incident, an out-of-control car rammed into five motorcycles parked underneath a flyover at the 17th kilometre of the Cheras-Kajang Highway (Grand Saga) in Sungai Long.
Insp Mohd Nafzanee, who was an investigating officer attached to the Cheras district criminal investigation department, was among several others who had parked by the roadside to take cover from the rain.
The officer, who was from Terengganu, was on his way back home in Bandar Saujana Putra after attending a meeting in Cheras.
Nadia was too distraught to speak to the press but a close relative said she passed out several times after learning of the tragedy.
“Thank you so much for coming to pay your last respect. If my husband has ever wronged you, please forgive him,” she was heard saying at the Kampung Melaka muslim cemetery in Cheras.
Insp Mohd Nafzanee’s father, who is also a policeman attached in Penang, said the family was informed at about 5.45am.
“Initially, we were told that he had been involved in an accident. His motorcycle was there but he could not be found at the scene.
“That prompted a search by the police and our family. We checked all the hospitals but there were no sign of him. A team of policemen decided to go back to the scene at about 3am.
“After a thorough search in the area, they found him in a drain several metres away from the accident’s location,” said the brother, who refused to be named.
Insp Mohd Nafzanee was described as hardworking, responsible and knowledgeable by his superior.
“I can’t really talk right now. It’s like my words are stuck in my throat,” said teary-eyed KL police chief Datuk Tajuddin Md Isa who paid his last respect.
Insp Mohd Nafzanee who has been in service for nine years, leaves behind a wife and two children – Dhia Damia and Danish Danial, both aged six.
