Police are currently examining dashcam and CCTV footage in an attempt to reconstruct the fatal Immigration lorry crash that occurred on Jalan Sultan Ismail. The crash resulted in the deaths of Shaik Mohd Firdaus Shaikh Yahya, 53, and his two daughters, Siti Nor Sazlin, 25, and Siti Darwisyah Auni, 12. The investigation is focusing on footage from the vicinity of the Maju Junction intersection and the dashcam installed in the Immigration Department's vehicle.
The lorry, which was travelling from the Kuala Lumpur Immigration office to Chow Kit to collect detainees, was found to have entered the intersection on a red light, despite its siren and beacon lights being activated. The Proton Saga driver, a 50-year-old man, was reportedly travelling on a green light when the collision occurred.
The incident is being investigated under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 for causing death by reckless or dangerous driving.
