PUTRAJAYA, Feb 23 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has expressed his concern for Khairul Hanafi, eight, who is currently receiving treatment in the Intensive Care Unit at the Putrajaya Hospital after being involved in an accident last week.
He has instructed his political secretary Muhammad Kamil Abdul Munim to visit Khairul and his family at the hospital.
"Kamil has handed over a donation on my behalf to the victim's family. Praying that young Khairul Hanafi will recover soon and gain the strength to continue his life, InsyaAllah," said Anwar in a Facebook post today.
Khairul sustained severe injuries after being involved in an accident in front of SK Presint 11(1) in Putrajaya last week.
According to news reports, Putrajaya district police chief AC Aidi Sham Mohamed said that the incident occurred when the victim was attempting to cross the road to return to school before being hit by a car driven by a woman.
As a result of the accident, the victim suffered serious head injuries and a broken left leg.
During the incident, members of the public had to overturn a Perodua Alza car to rescue the student, who was trapped under the vehicle.
