Semarang, C Java (ANTARA) - The remains of Novita Kurnia Putri, who died instantly in a fatal shooting in Texas, USA, on October 4, arrived at her family's house in Semarang City, Central Java, in the early morning of Sunday.

Mourners were brought to tears as the deceased's coffin arrived from Jakarta for a funeral at the city's Sasonoloyo Bumi Rejo cemetery on Sunday.

Putri's father, Ade Sutisna, said he surrendered to God's destiny. "My family surrenders to the destiny. The most important thing for us is that her remains has arrived home," he said.

The deceased's husband, Robert Brazil, joined the plane carrying her casket from the United States to Indonesia, and the vehicle transporting it from Jakarta to the mourning house.

Putri, 25, was shot dead by two American teenagers who sprayed an AirBnb where she stayed in near San Antonia, Texas, with some 100 bullets in a drive-by shooting on Oct 4.

The Indonesian Government made its utmost efforts to take Putri's body home for burial but it took time due to documents that should be fulfiled for registering the death.

Ade Sutisna said he thanked the government for its utmost endeavors to bring her daughter's body home.

According to media reports, local police probed into the drive-by shooting case, and had arrested the pair of killers, aged 14 and 15, along with three other suspects, aged 14, 15, and 17.

Over the past 10 years, the United States has repeatedly borne witness to acts of gun violence that have killed numerous innocent people.

In December 2012, for instance, a total of 27 people, including 20 children in the age group of five to 10 years, reportedly died after a gunman launched an attack on a primary school in Newton, Connecticut.

Thereafter, on June 12, 2016, a fatal shooting again broke out at a night club in Orlando, Florida, claiming the lives of 50 people and inflicting injuries to 53 others.

The Indonesian Government denounced the Orlando shooting incident and extended its heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims and to the US government and people.

In tackling the gun violence-related issue, the Barack Obama administration had also planned to "widen background checks on buyers of firearms" in the country, according to the BBC in 2016.

The BBC noted that the Barack Obama administration had imposed a regulation necessitating all gun sellers to be licensed and to conduct background checks.
