SINGAPORE — After their father died suddenly of natural causes, a family was shocked to realise that the name they had always known him by was not his real name.

After their father died suddenly of natural causes, a family was shocked to realise that the name they had always known him by was not his real name.

When the police arrived, they first identified the man as Mr Abdul Rahman Majid, according to the name provided under the"father" column in his youngest son's birth certificate. However, fingerprints lifted from the dead man did not match any record in the national database, nor any in the databases of Malaysia or Indonesia.

The sister of the real Mr Abdul Rahman was also surprised to hear that someone was using her brother's identity, and said it was her first time hearing this. On questioning by the coroner, Insp Ng said she had shown a photo of the deceased to the real Mr Abdul Rahman, but not to his sister.
