His brother-in-law Berahim Nasip confirmed his passing but said the cause of death has not yet been determined.
"His remains are being transported to the late Datuk's residence in Taman Kong Lok, Sandakan, before being taken to Pangiran Mosque in Batu 7 for the funeral prayers.
"The burial will take place at Bintang Baru Cemetery, Rancangan Sungai Manila, after the Zohor prayers," Berahim said when contacted by Bernama yesterday.
