43-years-old Temiar Orang Asli Midah Angah burst into tears as she mourned the lost of her son, Haikal Yaakobt at a press conference by the family members of the seven Orang Asli children who went missing from their boarding school in Pos Tohoi, Gua Musang three years ago.
When prompted by activist lawyer Siti Kasim, Midah failed to speak and instead started sobbing.
She then triggered more tears from family members of the other children, also gathered at the Kuala Lumpur Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall where they had gathered to announce the filing of a negligence suit against the government and eight public officers.
Midah's two children, Noreen and Haikal Yaakob, were among the seven children who ran away from their hostel at SK Pos Tohoi on Aug 23, 2015. They did so out of fear of being punished by their teacher for bathing in a nearby river without permission.
After 47 days, only two survivors were found - Midah's older daughter Noreen, now 13, and her friend Miksudiar Aluj, 14 - both of whom were present today.
