The Beechcraft Model 390 (Premier 1) crash on Thursday claimed the lives of 10 people, including Johari.
The eight victims included two crew members and six passengers of the light aircraft. Another two were a car driver and a motorcyclist on the highway.
The plane was on its way from Langkawi to the Subang airport and had been cleared to land at 2.48pm.
