THE female driver involved in a crash that killed three Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) Dungun students last night has been remanded for four days starting today.

According to reports from Bernama, magistrate Nur Amira Fatihah Osman issued the remand order at the Kuala Terengganu court complex this morning.

The housewife, who has three children, appeared to be in a state of confusion.

Terengganu deputy police chief Datuk Wan Rukman Wan Hassan said in the incident at about 7.35 pm, three UiTM Dungun Campus students died, and another was critically injured when two motorcycles they were riding were hit by a suspect driving a sports utility vehicle (SUV) on Jalan Pantai.

The three victims were Muhammad Akmal Md Tukirin, 25, from Muar, Johor; Ku Adib Ku Azmi, 20, from Sungai Buloh, Selangor; and Khairil Anwar Jamaluddin, 20, from Ampang, Selangor.

Another student, Ammar Danish Mohd. Ridhuan, 20, suffered injuries and is receiving treatment at Dungun Hospital.

The case is being investigated under Section 41(1) Road Transport Act 1987. - October 10, 2024
