On Dec 4, 1977, a domestic flight from Penang to Kuala Lumpur was hijacked by unidentified individuals.

It would later crash into a swamp at Tanjung Kupang, Johor, with no survivors. To this day, the circumstances surrounding the disaster remain a mystery.

What is known is that Malaysian Airline System Flight MH653 departed from Runway 22 of Penang International Airport at 7.21pm.

It was carrying 93 passengers and seven crew members, piloted by Captain GK Ganjoor and First Officer Kamarulzaman Jalil.
