Siti Diana then called her son-in-law's brother in Amsterdam who told her that he had sent the family to the airport earlier.
"I am still shocked. I don't know anything yet and I am still waiting for news," she said, outside the family waiting area at Kuala Lumpur International Airport.
Siti Diana, who seemed dazed while facing the press, said her daughter and her family lived in Melbourne, Australia. The eldest of Shaliza's children was 15-years old.
It is understood that the family was planning to spend the Hari Raya holidays in Kuala Lumpur before heading back to Australia.
