'Pray for my Adeline,' pleads husband after police helicopter crash
JOHOR BARU: Corporal Adline Liu Yan Siu, 32, who survived the recent helicopter crash in Gelang Patah, had only tied the knot two months ago.
Her husband, Corporal Mohd Helmie Huzairie Sabli, 34, who serves with the Serdang district police headquarters in Selangor, said they married on May 20.
"She's a (Muslim) convert. We'd known each other for nearly nine years before she joined the Air Operations Force," he told the Mediaprima group when contacted today.
The Sarawak-born officer was one of five crew members aboard the police's AS355N helicopter that crashed near Sungai Pulai on Thursday.
The incident occurred during a flypast multi-agency simulation for the Nuclear Security Detection Exercise Malaysia-Indonesia-Thailand-Singapore 2025.
Helmie said he had rushed from Selangor to Johor Baru upon learning of the crash, arriving at Sultanah Aminah Hospital about 3pm that same day.
Now on the third day of treatment, Adline has fully regained consciousness and is no longer dependent on a ventilator.
"She started talking about 3pm yesterday. Her lungs are functioning well, and doctors are monitoring a spinal fracture," he said, adding that her swollen kidney glands did not require surgery.
Helmie thanked the public for their prayers and asked for continued support for his wife and the other crew members.
Earlier, Bukit Aman Internal Security and Public Order Department director Datuk Seri Azmi Abu Kassim said the only crew member still sedated in the hospital's intensive care unit is Constable RG. Devendran, 30.
Adline remains in the ICU but is stable, while the remaining three crew members have been transferred to regular wards.
