KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 2 — Five Malaysians and one Bruneian under the Sumud Nusantara Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) are expected to return home tomorrow evening.
They are scheduled to fly from Athens, Greece to Malaysia before resuming duties at the Sumud Nusantara Control Centre (SNCC) here, according to a report published today in Kosmo! Online.
One of them, Tuan Mohamad Asri Tuan Hussein, confirmed that he and the other participants would depart for Malaysia tonight.
“We are expected to arrive home tomorrow evening (Friday),” said Tuan Mohamad Asri, who is also Media Director of Muslim Care Malaysia.
He added that upon arrival at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), the group would head directly to the SNCC Operations Centre.
Besides Tuan Mohamad Asri, the Malaysians being repatriated are Abdul Rahim Azhari, Muhammad Khairin Afiq Mohd Subkhi, Ahmad Safuan Ujar and Nur Ilham Fansuri Zainal Rashid, along with Bruneian national Rezahmaisalamah Md Yusof.
At a press conference earlier, SNCC Director-General Datuk Dr Sani Araby Abdul Halim said the repatriation was carried out with the government’s support through Wisma Putra.
“We are not alone in this situation, and the government, through Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim as patron of Sumud Nusantara, has given its full commitment,” he said.
