'We are still in shock': Loved ones identify victims of Malaysia landslide near Genting Highlands - CNA

Mr Tan received news on Friday night that one of the bodies had a positive DNA match with Ms Hong.

"I'm here to identify my niece. We were looking for her everywhere yesterday, but last night they said there could be a possible DNA match with a dead body," Mr Tan told CNA outside Sungai Buloh Hospital's forensic department on Saturday morning. 

"We have all been living in uncertainty. Cannot sleep, cannot eat," he added.

"Now I have seen that it's really her … I feel numb looking at her body, it was hard to recognise. Her head was badly injured," he said, visibly shaken. 

Mr Tan was among several other family members and friends who were at Sungai Buloh Hospital to identify their loved ones. 

Some of them told CNA that they were still in shock from the news.
