Co-ordinator’s last words – I’m okay, go help the others

KUALA LUMPUR: “I’m okay, go help the others.” These were the last words of Ustaz Mohd Zaidi Mohd Sufian when a few youths tried to help him after the bus accident at Genting Sempah on Friday.

He died in the 7.50pm accident.

Mohd Zaidi, 28, a religious teacher and co-ordinator of the trip, died on the way to the Selayang Hospital.

One of the survivors, Mohammad Hafifi Yahya, 19, said he was sitting behind Mohd Zaidi. “We were thrown out of the bus when it started rolling.

“I saw him near me and asked if he needed help, but he told me to help the others instead,” he said at the hospital yesterday.

“I could not see how badly he was injured as it was too dark,” said Mohammad Hafifi, who suffered a broken leg.

Student Mohd Akram Abd Mustafa, 19, survived the crash only to see the lifeless body of his younger brother, 17-year-old Mohd Fahmi Abd Mustafa.

“When the bus went out of control, I was sitting in the middle of the bus and he was towards the back.

“Both of us were flung out and I landed on a patch of grass by the side of the road,” he said.

Mohd Akram said his first instinct was to look for his brother.

“I frantically searched for him. Then I saw a figure in a drain and when I got closer, I realised it was Fahmi,” he said.

Nor Haizam Hasan, 37, the mother of Mohd Ajril Azizi Azhari, said when she first heard about the accident, she thought her son was playing a prank.

“He called me and said: ‘Mum, I am pinned under the bus,’” she said.

“I told him to stop joking but before he could reply, the line went dead.”

A neighbour then alerted her about the accident 15 minutes later.

Mohd Ajril survived but suffered injuries and has been warded at the Selayang Hospital.

Umno Youth executive member Datuk Sohaimi Shahadan, who visited the crash victims at the hospital yesterday, said monetary aid and wheelchairs would be provided to the victims and their families.
