Actor Azlan Komeng has claimed that he lost RM10,000 in cash after a road accident in Kuala Lipis, Pahang on 11 October
Speaking to Harian Metro, Azlan said he had placed the money in a black bag before the accident occured.
"I didn't think about the money at all. We remembered it only after realising we had many expenses to cover, and we panicked when we discovered it was gone.
"After the accident, I was at the Kuala Lipis police station while my friends rechecked the car and found it empty," he said.
According to the police, he added, they did not notice the black bag when they removed his belongings from the car.
Azlan's wife, Nur Nilam Ortiz, believes that the bag may have flown out of the car during the accident
"Someone may have picked it up without realising it belonged to us," she suggested.
She also said they needed the money to cover Azlan's medical expenses, which amounted to nearly RM40,000.
Azlan suffered fractures in both his legs and hips, and had to undergo surgery on his right arm, while Nilam suffered minor injuries
"I even had to sell my jewellery to cover the expenses," Nilam said.
The couple hopes to have the money returned to ease their burdens.
Azlan's foster brother, Jalil Razak, also posted a video on TikTok about the couple's predicament
In the video, Azlan appealed to anyone who found the bag of money to contact him, his wife, or his foster brother.
