KAJANG: A teenager was among two people killed while three others were seriously injured in a four-vehicle accident on the Kuala Lumpur-Seremban Highway.

Muhammad Iqbal Md Fauze, 17, died on the spot in the 3.30am incident Sunday after losing control of his motorcycle at the 297th kilometre of the highway.

Muhammad Iqbal was said to have grazed the right side of a car which was parked on the emergency lane due to a punctured tyre.

“After grazing the car, Muhammad Iqbal skidded into three other motorcyclists, causing all of them to fall off their machines.

“The teenager died at the scene while 21-year-old Nazim Mohd Tumirin was pronounced dead at Hospital Serdang,” said Kajang OCPD Asst Comm Othman Nayan.

The car driver, identified only as Puvendran, was among the three who suffered severe head injuries.

The other two were identified as Habibul Azmie Md Yusoff, 25, and Muhammad Farid Noor Samsuddin, 24.

“They are receiving treatment at the same hospital,” ACP Othman said.

It is believed that the motorcyclists were involved in an illegal race in the wee hours.

The case is being investigated for reckless driving.
