"The four bodies have been flown to Malang by an Air Force Hercules A1315 belonging to Air Squadron 32," Azman said.
It was confirmed on Thursday that seven crew members of the Air Force Fokker 27 plane, which crashed into a housing complex near Halim Perdanakusumah airbase in East Jakarta, and three resident civilians were killed in the accident.
