Cyberjaya hit-and-run victim just celebrated her 31st birthday


PETALING JAYA: The woman killed in a hit-and-run accident in Cyberjaya just celebrated her 31st birthday two weeks ago on Oct 4.

Wan Amirah Wan Alias, an assistant manager with Unifi, passed away at Hospital Putrajaya at 5am on Thursday (Oct 18).

Distraught by Wan Amirah's passing, her aunt Thana Abdullah called for netizens to help locate the suspect.

"She was 10 when her mother passed away. She was like a daughter to me," Thana told The Star.

Her funeral will be held at Masjid At-Taqwa, Taman Tun Dr Ismail in Kuala Lumpur today (Oct 18).

Viral CCTV footage of the accident shows Wan Amirah hit by a car and dragged along the street at Shaftsbury Square, as she was crossing the road at 7.35pm on Wednesday (Oct 17).

The incident has angered Cyberjaya residents, who say rampant reckless driving is an issue in Cyberjaya.
