The body of an Indonesian doctor who was killed in Somalia has been brought home to Bintaro, Tangerang, and will be buried on Friday.Many people were seen paying their last respects to Andrias Karel Melkianus Keiluhu on Thursday.
His brother-in-law Hendrikus Passagi said Andrias would be buried at the Tanah Kusir cemetery in South Jakarta on Friday at 11 a.m.
The 44-year-old doctor and his western colleague, who both worked for Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders) in Mogadishu, were killed last Thursday when a gunman opened fire upon them.
Andrias’ body arrived at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport on an Emirates airplane on Wednesday night and was handed over by staff from the Foreign Ministry to his family.
