Norhayati Razali, a 55-year-old woman, was among four relatives struck by an Immigration Department lorry near Maju Junction in Kuala Lumpur on Wednesday at around 1 am. The incident resulted in her husband Shaik Mohd Firdaus Shaikh Yahya, 53, and her two daughters, Siti Nor Sazlin, 25, and Siti Darwisyah Auni, 12, losing their lives.
Norhayati suffered injuries to her head, hands, and both legs, and continues to receive treatment at Kuala Lumpur Hospital. Despite her physical condition, she remains unaware of her family's tragic fate. A family friend, who visited her, recounted that Norhayati did not seem to remember what had happened and was shown photographs of her deceased loved ones. She inquired why her husband had not visited her, according to the tearful video posted on Facebook by the friend's mother.
The lorry driver, Mohd Akbar Zainol, faced criminal charges following the accident. He appeared before the Kuala Lumpur Magistrate's Court on Thursday and was charged with five offenses, including three counts of causing death under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 and one count of driving without due care and attention, resulting in injuries to Norhayati, under Section 43(1) of the same Act. Mohd Akbar pleaded not guilty to all charges and was released on RM60,000 bail.
As Norhayati recuperates, her family and friends grapple with the difficult reality of the situation. Norhayati is still unaware that she has lost the people she holds dear, unaware of the profound impact of the tragic accident.
