IPOH, October 25 — The Perak police are appealing for witnesses to the recent accident involving a car carrying two journalists and a lorry on Jalan Ipoh-Lumut to come forward and provide information for the investigation. Police chief Datuk Mohd Alwi Zainal Abidin requested those who may have dashcam footage of the incident to share this data with the Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Division at Ipoh district police headquarters.
The crash occurred around 5:45 am, when a Perodua Bezza carrying two journalists collided with a lorry traveling in the same direction at a traffic light intersection. The car spun on the road after being struck from behind, while the lorry veered off and ended up in a roadside drain. Police received a report of the incident at 8:38 am, and three victims were taken to Raja Permaisuri Bainun Hospital for medical treatment.
One journalist, Nur Afiradina Arshad, is still in the hospital, while another, Zahratulhayat Mat Arif, has been discharged.
Mohd Alwi stated that further investigations into the incident are ongoing.
