Preliminary Report On FRU Truck Crash Will Be Tabled Next Week

Transport Minister Loke Siew Fook announced that the preliminary report on the Teluk Intan crash, where nine Federal Reserve Unit (FRU) members lost their lives last month, will be presented to the Cabinet next week.

He mentioned the special task force's 30-day investigation period, which began on May 15th, is almost over.


“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.


APAD's investigation concluded with the revocation of the truck operator's license due to multiple serious safety breaches, as per the latest reports.
