“The task force’s report will be presented to the Cabinet next week. I will present it to the Cabinet before any further action is taken,” he told a press conference at his ministry today.

The incident occurred on May 13 when a gravel-laden lorry and a FRU truck in a convoy returning from duty during the Chitirai Pournami celebration collided at Jalan Chikus-Sungai Lampam. The crash claimed the lives of nine FRU members from Unit 5 Ipoh.
