PUTRAJAYA: The company operating the lorry involved in the crash which killed nine policemen earlier this week is also being investigated under the Road Transport Act, says Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

The Deputy Prime Minister said the probe is being carried out by the Transport Ministry, Puspakom and Road Transport Department (JPJ) after a public outcry that the company be held responsible.
