The Malay news outlet estimated that more than 400 friends and family members were in attendance.
The bodies were brought back to Singapore from Batu Pahat, Johor last night (23 March). After the ritual washing, funeral prayers were carried out at Woodlands Memorial.
At the burial site, the mood was visibly solemn despite the crowd. One photo captured a woman — who appeared to be the late Mohammad Shahfiq’s mother — clutching her hands to her chest while her husband held her.
