IN HER final phone call with her husband, Ms Lo Hwei Yen held her voice steady, telling Michael Puhaindran she loved him and "please ask them to hurry up".

Thirty-six hours later, her husband identified her body on the 19th floor of the Mumbai Oberoi hotel last Friday.

The 28-year-old Singaporean lawyer was taken hostage and later killed when terrorists stormed the hotel a week ago. She had gone to Mumbai on Wednesday to attend a business seminar and had just delivered a talk hours before the deadly assault which left 188 dead.
