One more AirAsia victim identified


The Disaster Victim Identification (DVI) team of the Bhayangkara Police Hospital in Surabaya has identified the body of a female passenger of AirAsia flight QZ8501 that plunged into the Karimata Strait, Central Kalimantan.

DVI team head Snr. Comr. Dr. Budiyono said on Tuesday that the victim had been identified as Kathleen Fulvia Linaksita, 12, a resident of Surabaya.

“We identified her by comparing her DNA with the DNA of her father, Tony Linaksita, who died in the plane accident and was identified earlier,” Budiyono was quoted by Antara as saying.

With the identification of Kathleen, he said the team had identified 97 bodies among the 103 recovered.

The plane crashed into the Java Sea on Dec. 28 with the loss of all 155 passengers and seven crew members.
