MPV driver just can’t forgive himself


MARANG: Minta maaf. Minta maaf. Saya minta maaf sangat sangat (I am sorry, I am truly sorry). Those were the words a distraught teacher Ahmad Nasal Abd Rahman, 52, kept repeating from his hospital bed in Kemaman.

Ahmad Nasal was the man behind the wheel when an MPV went out of control before hitting a divider and ramming into the pillar of an overhead bridge near the Chukai toll exit of the East Coast Expressway. Six people, including three children, were killed in the crash.
