MELAKA: Two female factory workers were killed after their car skidded along the Alor Gajah-Melaka Tengah-Jasin Highway (AMJ) on the way home after completing their night shift.
Melaka Tengah OCPD Asst Comm Christopher Patit identified the victims as driver Noor Izwani Ali Mohd Nor, 35, from Jalan Pasir Gembor 2, Kampung Sempang in Merlimau here and passenger Nur Aisah Djaapar, 34, from Jalan Masjid Serkam Darat, also in Merlimau.
He said both victims died at the scene during the 8.05am accident near Kandang yesterday, which also involved two other vehicles.
ACP Christopher said Noor Izwani was believed to have lost control of her car which veered to the other side of the highway.
He said a medical assistant identified as Saifiudin Jasmi, 30, who was riding a motorcycle to his workplace on the opposite side of the highway, fractured his right leg when he collided with the skidding car.
ACP Christopher said the 43-year-old driver of another car, who works for the Melaka police contingent headquarters, sustained minor injuries after crashing with the victim’s car.
