Selangor Dun observes minute's silence to mourn Khalid Ibrahim's death

Menteri Besar Selangor Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari, as the Leader of the House, called on all assemblymen to stand and offer prayers for Abdul Khalid, who had held the post of Menteri Besar from 2008 to 2014.

Abdul Khalid, 76, breathed his last at 11.08 pm yesterday. A post on his Facebook page announced that Abdul Khalid had been warded since April 23 due to an infection of a heart valve.

The Kuala Selangor-born leader leaves behind a wife Puan Sri Salbiah Tunut, four children and two grandchildren.

In keeping with a decree of the Sultan of Selangor Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah, Abdul Khalid will be laid to rest at the Shah Alam Royal Mausoleum in Section 5. - BERNAMA
