A passenger aboard AirAsia Flight 8501 became the first victim of the crash to be returned to her family Thursday, one of many painful reunions to come, as search crews struggled against wind and heavy rain to find more than 150 people still missing. Hayati Lutfiah Hamid's identity was confirmed by fingerprints and other means, AP quoted Col. Budiyono of East Java's Disaster Victim Identification Unit as saying. Her body was handed over to family members during a brief ceremony at a police hospital in Surabaya, the Indonesian city where the plane took off. The Airbus A320 crashed into the Java Sea on Sunday with 162 people on board. Nine bodies have been recovered so far, including two on Thursday.
