A WOMAN and her parents are killed in a three-vehicle pile-up at Km128 of Jalan Kuantan-Johor Bharu in Rompin, Pahang, today.

State traffic police chief Kamarulzaman Jusoh said all three died at the scene due to head injuries in the accident at 1.30pm.

The victims are Nur Rawiyah Abu Samah, 25, a housewife and driver of the Perodua Kancil, and her parents, Abu Samah Mohamed, 74, and Saripah Ab Malek, 59.

All three were from Kampung Gading in Rompin.

Abu Samah and Saripah’s 1-year-old grandson, who was also in the car, escaped unhurt.

“The accident is believed to have happened when a van travelling from Leban Chondong to Kuala Rompin went out of control and crashed into the victims’ car and a lorry in the opposite lane,” said Kamarulzaman.

The 24-year-old van driver from Kampung Tengah dislocated a shoulder and sustained injuries to both legs, while the 49-year-old lorry driver sustained injuries to the hands. – Bernama, April 11, 2022.
