Gua Musang Fire and Rescue Station Chief Muhammad Azrul Izzham Zulkifli stated that emergency services received the initial call at 5:10 pm, with fire engines arriving at the scene at 6:08 pm. He confirmed that the two victims died at the location after sustaining severe bodily injuries.
The driver of one of the vehicles, identified as the husband of the deceased woman, was trapped inside the car but was extracted by members of the public before the fire crew arrived. All injured parties were handed over to Ministry of Health ambulance teams for further medical attention.
Muhammad Azrul noted that the accident site is located 56 kilometers from the Gua Musang Fire and Rescue Station. Following the rescue operations, the fire team conducted cleanup work to remove debris and oil spills from the road. The incident highlights the significant response time challenges faced by emergency services in remote areas of the state, given the substantial distance between the station and the crash site.
Gua Musang District Police Chief Superintendent Sik Choon Foo confirmed the incident and stated that investigations into the cause of the crash are ongoing. The deaths of the mother and child have drawn attention to road safety on the Gua Musang-Kuala Krai route, a key arterial road in northern Kelantan. Police have not yet released specific details regarding the speed of the vehicles or the exact sequence of events leading to the collision.
The case remains under active investigation to determine liability and the precise factors that contributed to the fatal accident.
