SEPANG: Penerima kotak hitam MH17, Mejar Muhamad Mustafa Omar tidak menyangka kedatangan pasukan penyiasat khas Malaysia ke timur Ukraine diterima baik oleh anggota puak pemisah.
"Kami pun terkejut dengan kerjasama yang diberikan pihak pemisah, mereka menanti kedatangan kami untuk meneruskan proses rundingan," katanya yang ditemui di Balai Ketibaan Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa KL (KLIA) hari ini.
Mejar Muhamad Mustafa merupakan antara 65 anggota pasukan penyiasat khas Malaysia yang pulang ke tanah air pada kira-kira pukul 10.52 pagi ini setelah berada di Ukraine selama lapan hari untuk mengumpul bahan bukti, mencari kotak hitam dan membawa pulang mayat mangsa terlibat.
Gambar Mejar Muhamad Mustapa menerima kotak hitam itu daripada puak pemisah dirakamkan oleh media seluruh dunia.
Beliau berkata perjumpaan dengan ketua pihak pemisah Alexander Borodai juga berjalan lancar tanpa insiden yang tidak diingini.
"Walaupun Borodai adalah ketua kumpulan pemisah, tapi beliau layan kami dengan baik, "katanya yang enggan mengulas lanjut tentang butiran rundingan dengan Borodai.
Mejar Muhamad Mustafa berkata sepanjang melakukan proses penyiasatan, satu daripada cabaran yang dilalui beliau dan pasukannya adalah sekatan jalan yang banyak sama ada yang diadakan oleh pihak tentera Ukraine ataupun puak pemisah.
"Sebenarnya tugas saya adalah untuk mengiringi pasukan ini, kebetulan saya juga mempunyai latar belakang teknikal untuk pastikan kotak hitam yang kami terima adalah kotak hitam yang betul dan mempunyai nombor siri yang berpadanan dengan pesawat itu, dan tugas saya diberikan secara spontan di situ.
"Saya berbangga sebab dapat pikul tanggungjawab saya dan ia juga tugas saya dalam memastikan semuanya berjalan dengan lancar," katanya semasa menceritakan semula pengalamannya ketika kotak hitam diserahkan buat pertama kalinya kepadanya.
Sementara itu, bagi seorang daripada anggota Pasukan Penyelamat Pasukan Mencari dan Menyelamat Khas Malaysia (SMART) daripada Tentera Udara Diraja Malaysia, Koperal Constatine Anji, 29, tugas memindahkan mayat-mayat mangsa MH17 daripada kereta api ke dalam pesawat di Karkhiv merupakan pengalaman yang tidak akan dilupakannya seumur hidup.
"Tiada satu mayat pun yang saya lihat sempurna, kebanyakannya terpisah, dan hancur dengan bau kurang menyenangkan, dalam hati sebak, tetapi demi tugas untuk negara saya cekalkan hati memindahkan mayat berkenaan bersama anggota pasukan lain," katanya.
Beliau yang telah dua tahun menyertai SMART berkata ini adalah pengalaman pertama beliau mengendalikan bencana di luar negara dan melibatkan nahas kapal terbang.
Bagaimanapun, katanya, kawasan tempat memindahkan mayat itu merupakan kawasan selamat dan proses pemindahan yang mengambil masa tiga jam berlaku dalam keadaan lancar dengan kerjasama baik puak pemisah.
Bagi seorang daripada doktor Angkatan Tentera Malaysia (ATM) yang turut terlibat dengan pasukan itu Kapten Dr Mohd Zainizam Zainal, 31, beliau tidak akan lupa pengalaman mengiringi mayat-mayat mangsa dalam gerabak kereta api sambil dikawal ketat anggota puak pemisah.
"Kelibat anggota puak pemisah itu boleh dilihat di mana-mana sahaja tetapi mereka tidak mengapa-apakan kami. Mereka berjaga untuk keselamatan...maklumlah itu memang zon peperangan," katanya.
Zainizam, bapa kepada seorang anak berlepas ke Kiev, Ukraine pada 18 Julai dan sepanjang tempoh itu keluarganya termasuk isteri banyak berdoa bagi keselamatannya dan selamat pulang ke tanah air.
"Memang terdetik rasa takut tetapi diketepikan. Mujur juga isteri memahami dan sentiasa menasihati saya agar tabah menjalankan tugas dan kami sebenarnya baru menimang cahaya mata pada Jun," katanya yang telah berkhidmat selama lima tahun dengan ATM.
Penerbangan MH17 dalam perjalanan dari Amsterdam ke Kuala Lumpur dengan 298 penumpang dan anak kapal terhempas di Donetsk, Timur Ukraine pada Khamis lepas.
Pesawat itu dipercayai ditembak jatuh tetapi setakat ini tiada pihak tampil mengaku bertanggungjawab.

MASCARA FROM MH17: Pro-Russia beauty insults air crash victims on Instagram
Written by NYP
A PRO-RUSSIAN woman living in the eastern separatist region of Ukraine posted pictures of herself on Instagram wearing makeup she claimed was looted from the Flight MH17 crash site.
“Mascara from Amsterdam, or rather from the field. Well, I think you know what I mean,” said Ekaterina Parkhomenko, who posted a picture of the stolen mascara on her now-deleted account, according to Central European News.
Parkhomenko says she lives in the city of Torez, which is the same location where Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 tragically crashed on July 17 after it was shot down by pro-Russian rebels.
Describing herself as a “separatist” on Instagram, the brunette bombshell admitted that the makeup wasn’t taken by her personally, but that she got it from a “familiar friend.”
MH17 crash: Parents of passenger Fatima Dyczynski arrive at Ukraine site to search for their daughter

George and Angela Dyczynski laid down flowers at the crash site in eastern Ukraine for their daughter Fatima Dyczynski, an aerospace engineer, who was among the 298 passengers killed on the downed flight.
The Perth-based couple are the first family members to visit the field where the plane came down near the village of Grabov.
Fatima had been travelling on flight MH17 back to Perth on a German passport, where she had planned to undertake an internship before returning to the Netherlands for further study.
Her parents told The West Austalian on Thursday after arriving at the Schiphol Airport in the Netherlands they were travelling to the site despite warnings from officials not to travel to the troubled rebel-held region.
Mr Dyczinski, who arrived wearing a t-shirt saying “Fatima We Love You”, said he still held hope his daughter could be alive.

He told The Telegraph: “I cling to it… In Australia, when one person [goes missing] hundreds of people go to the bush and look until they are found. So we want to [do it]. We want to see if there are survivors.”
On Friday, Dutch and Australian investigators arrived at the site of the crash as their governments prepared police detachments that will try to protect the crash area and help bring the last of the victims home.
On Saturday, the Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak announced he will travel to the Netherlands on Wednesday to discuss the downed Malaysia Airlines jet with his Dutch counterpart.
Mr Najib said he and the Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte will discuss securing full access to the crash site and whether Malaysian pathologists can be of assistance in "expediting the process of identifying the human remains."
The Boeing 777 went down on 17 July as it headed to Kuala Lumpur from Amsterdam. US and Ukrainian officials say it was shot down, likely by mistake, by a missile fired from rebel-held territory in eastern Ukraine, where pro-Russian separatists are fighting Ukrainian government forces.
THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — The family of two brothers killed in the downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 is unhappy that the carrier has offered them no grief counselling in more than a week and is refusing to organize a flight home to Houston for the boys' grandmother.
Harun Calehr, the uncle of victims Miguel and Shaka Panduwinata, said Saturday the family's frustration has grown as they felt they had to haggle for help in the days after the Boeing 777 was shot down over Ukraine.
Calehr says, "Everything that we got, we had to fight for."
In a reaction emailed to The Associated Press, Malaysia Airlines says it will "continuously focus to care for the family members affected by MH17 to the best of our ability."
Human remains still at MH17 crash site — Australian PM
SYDNEY: More than a week after Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 came down in rebel-held eastern Ukraine human remains are still at the crash site, Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said yesterday.
The majority of the 298 people killed when the plane was apparently shot down by a missile were Dutch, but there were also 28 Australian nationals and nine permanent residents onboard.
Abbott is sending 190 Australian Federal Police to the Netherlands, along with a small number of Australian Defence Force (ADF) troops, including a medical team, to participate in a planned Dutch-led operation to secure the crash site.
“Yesterday Australian officials again had access to the sites,” Abbott said.
“Plainly there are unrecovered body remains in the area. And it’s the presence of unrecovered remains that makes it more important than ever that an international team be dispatched to the site.”
Questioned on concerns about sending troops into the volatile situation in Ukraine, Abbott stressed that Australia’s involvement in the planned mission was only to secure the remains and help the investigation.
“It is, I stress, a humanitarian mission. Others can get involved if they wish in the politics of eastern Europe, our sole concern is to claim our dead and to bring them home,” he said.
“When you’ve got major humanitarian effort, as we have, it’s normal and natural to have ADF assistance and many countries have got their defence personnel on the ground already,” he added, saying this included Dutch and Malaysian military personnel.
Abbott said every day the crash site remained unsecured, there was more risk of interference and that bodies would deteriorate due to their exposure to the elements.
“So we do want to get this done as quickly as we humanly can and that’s why we are exploring all options in Ukraine now,” he added.
Abbott said Foreign Minister Julie Bishop, who was in Kiev on Friday to meet with her Ukrainian counterpart, could return to the city in coming days.
He said the last of the remains of MH17 victims which have already been placed in a train and sent to the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv were to be sent later yesterday to the Netherlands to begin the process of identification and repatriation. — AFP
