JAKARTA - The forensic team of the National Police Hospital has again identified the body of Muhammad Ruslan (44), a victim of a fatal accident in Cibubur, Bekasi on Tuesday, July 19.

Ruslan's body was identified based on matching antemortem data such as identity cards (KTP), diplomas, to birth certificates brought by the family.

Ahmad Riyad (39), the younger brother of the victim Ruslan, said he knew his brother from information from neighbors who said that Muhammad Ruslan's data was at the Police Hospital.

"The address is exactly the same, Kuningan. From that we came here, wanting to prove whether it was really here or where, it turned out to be very similar," said Ahmad Riyad to reporters, Tuesday, July 19.

Arriving at the Police Hospital, Riyad could not see the body of his older brother.

"Mother said earlier, you don't have to look at dad, it's better if we just let it go. Yes, we are sincere, I'm just making a report to my parents, this confuses me. I'm afraid he has heart disease, I'm horrified," he said.

Riyad admitted that he last saw his brother the day before the fateful incident occurred. The victim said to his parents while kissing his hand.

"Usually it's not. That's what makes parents wonder, 'oh yes mama, please pray. Be careful on the road'. (At the time of the incident) Muhammad Ruslan was working in queues, he was working as a courier, taking his teeth to the dentist," he said.

Riyad said the incident occurred when Ruslan took his teeth to the dentist in the direction of Cibubur. Meanwhile Riyad and his parents waited for Ruslan to come home from the afternoon.

"His parents have also been crying and I'm banging on my tears. I thought why, Ruslan hasn't come home yet," he said.

Ruslan has a wife and a 10 year old son. But Ruslan's wife lives in the village, his son lives with his wife.

"The plan is to have it buried near the family too, near his grandfather too. Today we will also leave. (buried)," he said.
