JAKARTA, INDONESIA - JANUARY 12: Seeking to identify remains from Saturday’s Indonesian passenger plane crash with 62 people on board, the country's Police HQ Disaster Victim Identification (DVI) team has started to get DNA samples from the victims’ families on Tuesday (Jan.12). The DVI team will try to match the DNA samples with several bags of human remains retrieved from the Sriwijaya Air flight crash site. The families of the victims provide data in the form of diploma documents, family cards, or other materials. "We have discussed with the team and hope the results will come soon. We trust the team because this is a process. The findings are small body parts. As the victim's family we wait for the process to be completed. We hope we could have all the body remains for a proper burial," Slamet Bowo Santoso, one of the victim's brother. The remains were found around the underwater crash site, in the Thousand Islands area between the isles of Lancang and Laki. The domestic flight departed from Jakarta’s Soekarno-Hatta Airport bound for the city of Pontianak in West Borneo when it lost contact within minutes after taking off. It carried 50 passengers, including 10 children, plus 12 crew members. (Footage by Surya Fachrizal Aprianus/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
