Husband of accident victim still in shock, says family

KOTA TINGGI: The husband of a woman who perished in a fiery accident near Kulai last night is still in shock.

Nur Izzah Atikah Jamaluddin, 28, said her cousin, Redzuan Jamil, 28, was still traumatised by the incident and had refused to eat or drink since the incident.

"The late Azi's (victim Nurul Nazihah Kamalul Arifin's) husband is traumatised.

"Redzuan's mother said her son kept calling out his late wife's name before finally falling asleep from exhaustion last night," she said at Nurul Nazihah parent's residence in Kampung Lukut, Batu 4, here, today.

Last night, a heartbreaking video of Redzuan screaming and wailing over his trapped wife in a burning vehicle went viral on social media.

The one-minute-37-second video showed Redzuan screaming for his wife and declaring that he will not leave her as their vehicle burst out in flames.

In the horrific accident at 7.45pm last night, two individuals were killed after their respective vehicles went up in flames in a pile-up involving five vehicles, at KM45.7 of the North-South Plus Highway, South bound, near Sedenak.

In the incident, Nurul Nazihah was believed to have been trapped in the front passenger seat while her husband was pulled out of the car by members of the public.

The identity of the other victim is as yet undetermined.
