MERSING: Three people were killed and five others injured in a two-car collision at Km15 of Jalan Mersing-Endau here, on Saturday afternoon.

The deceased were identified as Toyota Vios passengers Nur Ainil Jannah, 22 and her father, Abdul Manan Ahmad, 59; and Honda City passenger Mahmud Md Aksan, 71.

Those injured in the 5.30pm crash were Honda City driver Mohd Ruzaimie Mahmud, 32, his two children, Fatima Az Zahra, 3 and Muhammad Ammar Nafis, 5; and Siti Soraya Sabtu, 32 and Siti Kalsom, 63.



The accident is believed to have occurred when Abdul Manan, who was en route from here to Endau, lost control of his vehicle, which veered into the opposite lane and crashed into the oncoming Honda City.

“The bodies were sent to the Mersing Hospital for post-mortems.

“The injured were rushed to the same hospital for treatment,” Mersing police chief Assistant Superintendent Mohd Nor Mohd Isa said in a statement.
