Based on a report by Berita Harian, the incident took place yesterday (August 15) at around 4:50pm, where the girl, Nur Asyqin Qistina, was found unconscious in her room by her father, 54-year-old M Nor Zawawi Awang.

Just before the incident took place, her father who was at a surau near their home, shared that he heard a loud thunderclap through the rainy weather, which caused the electricity supply to his house to be cut off.
