Wira driver sought over fatal crash near Serendah

KUALA LUMPUR: Police are looking for a car driver to faciliate investigations into a fatal crash at KM38, Jalan Kuala Lumpur-Ipoh near the Serendah Golf Resort that killed three people this morning.

Hulu Selangor police chief Superintendent Ahmad Faizal Tahrim said the driver of a Proton Wira was overtaking a vehicle in front, when an oncoming Perodua Axia hit its right side while trying to avoid the sedan in the 10.55am incident.

The Axia then went into a spin before being hit by a Toyota Avanza from behind, he said.

Ahmad urged those with information on the crash to come forward and assist the police in their investigation.

The Selangor Fire and Rescue Department had earlier informed that the three people killed in the crash were Rosihat Lemon, 68; Chan Kwai Hoong, 62, and Soo Yoke Siew, 53.

Rosihat's son, Ahmad Hesyamy, 41, told Bernama at the Kuala Kubu Baru Hospital's forensics unit that his father was on his way back to Batang Kali from the Serendah health clinic after accompaying his mother for a medical check up.

He said that his mother, Azizah Alikin, 66, was seriously injured in the crash and undergoing treatment at Selayang Hospital. -- Bernama
