“He received initial treatment at HHT and I understand he has been transferred to Sultanah Nur Zahirah Hospital, Kuala Terengganu for further treatment,” Mohd Safari Abu, chairman of the Telemong State Assembly Action Council who witnessed the scene, was quoted as saying.

HHT stands for the Hulu Terengganu Hospital.

According to Mohd Safari, it was customary for Mohamad Yusuf to perform the Aidiladha slaughter at several villages in the Telemong constituency every year.

He said this was the first year an incident happened, adding that the animal slaughter proceeded smoothly after that.
