Another passenger of a bus which skidded and crashed into a storm drain in Sepang last night has died, bringing the death toll to 11.

The latest victim has been identified as Jagarnath Singh Danuwar, 31, from Nepal. He died at the Putrajaya Hospital while receiving treatment, reports nst.com.my.

The 11 dead comprise the Malaysian bus driver and 10 foreign workers; while the injured are made up of two Malaysian women and 30 foreigners. The non-Malaysians hail from Indonesia, Nepal and Bangladesh.

The accident occurred at 11:10pm near the MAS Cargo Complex, Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) at Jalan S8 Pekeliling in Sepang.

The bus was ferrying contract workers of the MAS Cargo Complex from their hostel in Nilai, Negri Sembilan to their place of work when the driver lost control of the vehicle, which skidded and crashed into a 10-metre-deep storm drain.

The bus driver and eight workers died on the spot, while two others died while being treated at the Serdang and Putrajaya Hospitals.

“The bus was ferrying 43 passengers, mostly foreign contract workers, with MAS Cargo.

“Nine of the victims, including the 43-year-old bus driver, were confirmed dead at the accident spot.

“A tenth victim died at the Serdang Hospital, and the latest victim died at the Putrajaya Hospital,” said head of Selangor Traffic Enforcement and Investigation Department Superintendent Azman Shari’at.

He said that 13 other injured passengers were sent to the Serdang Hospital; 16 to the Putrajaya Hospital; four to the Banting Hospital; and one to the Kajang Hospital.

As of noon, five injured passengers from the Putrajaya Hospital and four from the Serdang Hospital were discharged and allowed to return home.

KLIA district police chief Assistant Commissioner Zulkifli Adamshah said the workers were supposed to clock in for their 12 midnight work shift.

“The cause of the incident is being investigated under Section 41 (1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 for causing death by reckless or dangerous driving,” Zulkifli told reporters at the scene of the incident.

Zone Five (South Selangor) Fire and Rescue Department chief Mohd Fadhil Salleh said they received an emergency call on the accident at 11:16pm.

“Upon arriving, we secured the site of the accident and stabilised the bus, before extricating the trapped victims.

“We had to cut open several parts of the bus to reach them.

“It took us about an hour to complete the operation,” he added.
