A family spokesperson was quoted as saying that Sri Siti Amirah, the step-grandmother of Datuk Seri Najib Razak, was travelling alone on her way back to Jogjakarta, Indonesia from Amsterdam and intended to transit at Kuala Lumpur International Airport.
She was 83 years old, and was once married to Tan Sri Mohammad Noah Omar as his second wife. Noah, who passed away in 1990, was Najib's grandfather.
Datin Dr Faridah Abdullah told The Star that Siti was a homemaker.
"She was a very, very nice lady. A kind-hearted, beautiful woman," she told the English daily.
Faridah said Siti had travelled to Amsterdam to holiday with her only daughter from her first marriage.
She added that Siti’s daughter, who could not be named at this point, was supposed to have followed her mother on her way back but couldn't get on the same flight as hers.
The Star Online quoted Faridah as saying that Siti, a native Indonesian, and her daughter were planning to spend Hari Raya in Jogjakarta.
Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 crashed yesterday over eastern Ukraine killing all 298 people on board, with officials in Kiev and Moscow both denying involvement in the shooting down of the jet.
