Selangor police chief Hussein Omar Khan requested all witnesses to come forward and give statements to complete their investigations, Bernama reported.

The Air Accident Investigation Bureau is also carrying out its work on the crash, he said at the forensic department of Tengku Ampuan Rahimah Hospital here today.
