According to information from the Indonesian Embassy in Berlin obtained by medcom.id, the deceased Indonesian was a 20-year-old female student who was pursuing a bachelor's degree at Hochschule für Technik und Wirtschaft (HTW) Berlin.
On the Instagram page of PPI Germany, the victim is identified as Anatasya Leoni, a member of PPI Germany, serving as a Staff member of the Department of Self-Development and Career, for the 2023/2024 term.
"PPI Germany extends its deepest condolences on the departure of our beloved friend, Anatasya Leoni, a Bachelor student at HTW Berlin in the Wirtschaftskommunikation program. Tasya was also part of the larger PPI Germany family for 2023/24, serving as a Staff member of the Department of Self-Development and Career,” the post reads.
"We unite in prayers for Tasya. May her deeds and worship be accepted, may she be granted the best place in His sight, and may the family she left behind be given strength and fortitude,” the post adds.
