"My late father had been experiencing a loss of appetite lately which had caused him to lose weight.
"He had also complained of back and joint pain but I did not have the opportunity to visit him due to this pandemic," he told Bernama.
Kamaruddin was also reported to suffer from various diseases including high blood pressure, diabetes and prostatitis.
He was laid to rest at the Bukit Beruntung Muslim Cemetery this afternoon.
