Dad want's explanation on son's 'shock' death

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 9 - The father of Muhammad Failzul Abdul Basek, 17, who was killed by electrical shock at Taman KLCC on Jan 1 will take legal action against KLCC if no explanation is made in one month.

Abdul Basek Mad Isa, 42, was disappointed that the KLCC management did not meet the family to apologise a letter had been sent asking for an explanation.

"The KLCC management said it was investigating the case but nothing has happened since. I will go to court to seek justice if KLCC does not come back to me in one month," he told a press conference here today.

Meanwhile, Kepong Umno division chief Senator Datuk Rizuan Abdul Hamid said KLCC should be responsible for Muhammad Failzul's death as it happened at a public recreational area. Muhammad Failzul was leaning against a lamp post at 12.04am on Jan 1 when he got an electrical shock due to his wet clothing.

The 20 hectare Taman KLCC next to the Petronas Twin Towers opened by then prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad on Oct 29, 1998 is a popular recreational spot for city dwellers. - Bernama
