Edited

regarding this sentence:

"he asks a nurse who was ruangaannya to keep off, lighting the rooms"

original is: ia sempat meminta perawat yang menjaga ruangaannya untuk dimatikan, penerangan kamarnya

ruangan = room; nya = him

TT: He could ask for the nurse that guarded ruangaan him to be killed, his room information

My take of the meaning of this sentence is: the reporter spotted a nurse, who was guarding the room of the deceased, and asked , if she or he knew more.

That makes sense, Dutchy. But then how does this remark by the hospital official fit in? Seems like he would know why the reporter would ask for more info... that's what (good) reporters do
"Did not know why, that the patient's request," he said.

[ProMED-mail no longer reports unconfirmed human cases of avian (H5N1) influenza, except with regard to reports emanating from Indonesia. This exception is necessitated because the usual flow of information -- first suspected and then confirmation -- has been disrupted as a consequence of an official Indonesian embargo on immediate release of information.

The suspected case above is reported, therefore, although there is no
confirmation that the patient has died as a result of avian influenza virus
infection. According to the WHO Timeline
