Victims' kin want no mercy for Immigration lorry driver
KUALA LUMPUR: No bias, no mercy. This is what the family of three people killed in an accident involving an Immigration Department lorry here on Wednesday want from the authorities after the driver was charged yesterday.
The family of three victims killed in an accident involving an Immigration Department lorry in Kuala Lumpur seeks no leniency or bias from the authorities, as the driver has been charged for allegedly running a red light. Shaik Mohd Firdaus Shaik Yahya, 53, and his two daughters, Siti Nor Sazlin, 25, and Siti Darwisyah Auni, 12, lost their lives at the scene in Jalan Sultan Ismail.
The incident claimed the life of Azlan Rozali, 48, the widower of Firdaus' sister, Norhayati Rozali, who remains in the hospital as the sole survivor. Azlan told the New Straits Times that his family desires a swift resolution and expects a fitting punishment for the driver. The family is considering a civil suit against the accused and is still processing the tragic loss.
Norhayati is undergoing surgery to insert metal supports into her rib cage following her injuries, while her eldest child, Siti Nor Shakira, 28, is set to join her in Kuala Lumpur.
