PETALING JAYA: The screams and cries of his daughter when she called him on her way home were enough to tell Kamarozaman Jamaludin that all was not well.

Kamarozaman, whose 25-year-old daughter Nur Fashilah Al Jiilah was a passenger on board one of the two trains on the LRT Kelana Jaya line that collided on Monday (May 24), said a feeling of dread overcame him when he received a call from her at about 8.30pm.
