SINGAPORE: In the ongoing coroner's inquiry into the death of Indonesian student David Widjaja, friends from his university's bible study group told the court on Wednesday the student was a reserved person who avoided talking about his personal life.

Speaking to reporters at a news conference, his elder brother William Widjaja expressed his disappointment about the way the university had handled the issue.

The Widjaja family said they wanted to claim some of his belongings, including his laptop and his mobile phone.

The family also hired their own forensic scientist and lawyer to assist them with proceedings.

The 21-year-old Indonesian was a final year Electrical and Electronic Engineering student at the Nanyang Technological University (NTU).

He had allegedly stabbed his project work supervisor, Chan Kap Luk, before falling to his death in March this year.
