KOTA KINABALU: A day after the “Double Six” plane crash investigation report was declassified, the family of the late Datuk Peter J Mojuntin feel they are now further from the truth than before.
Mojuntin’s widow Datin Nancy Mary Mobijohn expected the report to shed new light on the tragedy that took her husband’s life as well as the lives of 10 others, including then chief minister Tun Fuad Stephens on June 6, 1976.
She and her eldest son Datuk Donald Mojuntin spoke to reporters shortly before receiving the official report on the crash from Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Minister Datuk Ewon Benedick, who is also president of Upko, a Pakatan Harapan component. Among others, the 20-page report, which was declassified on April 6 and released on Wednesday , stated that there was no evidence of “sabotage, fire or explosion” that caused the Australian-made Nomad N-22B 9M-ATZ aircraft to crash.
The Mojuntin family had hoped that the 47th anniversary of the fatal crash this year would be remembered in a better way with the release of the investigation report.“Whatever is done for the memorial this year, I think it will be the same.
