The accident occurred at about 7.20 a.m. on Friday, 2 October, when a 19‑year‑old girl riding a motorcycle and her nine‑year‑old sister were killed, while a 12‑year‑old pillion passenger suffered serious injuries and was taken to Raja Permaisuri Bainun Hospital.
Tambun parliamentary community service centre officer Muhammad Izzudin Hariz Bohari handed over the contribution on Anwar’s behalf, saying the Prime Minister also serves as the Tambun MP.
Officer Ashraf Kahasani stated that Anwar had instructed the centre to deliver the aid directly to the next of kin to ease their burden and that further help would be considered for the injured victim if needed.
Nurul Aeina Ibrahim, the 28‑year‑old eldest sister, said she learned of the crash from a school teacher at 8 a.m. and was not told her younger sisters had died until she reached the scene.
She added that the surviving sister, Norhayati Qaliesha, remained in critical condition and had not yet been informed of her siblings’ deaths.
The two deceased girls, Elyana Nasuha and Suhaila, were buried in a common grave at Tambun Muslim Cemetery at about 6.30 p.m. the same day, as reported by Bernama.
Ashraf Kahasani told reporters that the centre would look into additional assistance for the injured sister after the initial aid was delivered.
