Father, teen daughter killed in car crash


SUNGAI BULOH: A father and his teen daughter were killed in a crash with another vehicle at KM452 North-South Expressway (southbound), near here.

The two who died at the scene were identified as Mat Zaki Mahmud, 48, and Mya Zaratul Nuraishah, 13.

Mat Zaki’s cousin Farizal Othman, 37, said the family were on their way to Pahang after voting in Penang and Kedah and were travelling in three cars.

“The incident happened within the blink of an eye. I did not see how it happened, I only heard a very loud bang which made me stop to see what had happened,” he said at the Sungai Buloh Hospital Forensic Unit here yesterday.

Sungai Buloh OCPD Supt Shafa’aton Abu Bakar said preliminary investigations found that both vehicles were southbound.

He said that the case was being investigated under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987. — Bernama
