1. Slipped While Crossing
According to him, Affan passed away after slipping while attempting to cross amidst the chaos.

"Slipped in the middle, ultimately getting run over like that. Now, when he was run over, that armored vehicle should have reversed, but it didn’t, probably because the crowd was also moving towards that vehicle, so eventually, the armored vehicle had no choice but to continue its journey," added Andi.
According to Denny Sumargo, who came to the hospital to strengthen the family of the deceased, Affan was the second child of three siblings.
"He is the second child of three siblings, he left behind his parents and two siblings, as far as I know, he was the backbone of his family, that’s what the information said," Denny wrote on his Instagram.
