  "summary": "The family of three victims killed in an accident involving an Immigration Department lorry in Kuala Lumpur have expressed their desire for no bias or leniency in the authorities' handling of the case. The victims, Shaik Mohd Firdaus Shaik Yahya, 53, and his daughters Siti Nor Sazlin, 25, and Siti Darwisyah Auni, 12, were killed when the lorry rammed into them after allegedly running a red light. The driver of the lorry, Mohd Akbar Zainol, 43, has pleaded not guilty to five charges, including three counts of causing death by reckless or dangerous driving. The family has stated that they want the authorities to show no favoritism and ensure a fitting punishment for the driver. They are also considering a civil suit against the accused. The family's sole survivor, Norhayati Rozali, 55, is currently in the hospital, while her eldest child, Siti Nor Shakira, 28, is set to travel to Kuala Lumpur to be with her.",
