SEREMBAN: A four-month pregnant Orang Asli woman was killed after the motorcycle she was riding on collided with a dental clinic van at KM37.8 of Jalan Seremban-Tampin, Pekan Kota, here at 3pm Monday (Feb 19).

Rembau OCPD Deputy Supt Hazri Mohamad said the victim, identified as Nana Toni, 32, and her three-year-old son both sustained head injuries.

He said the motorcycle, driven by the victim’s 28-year-old brother, is believed to have recklessly changed lanes at a road junction, resulting in a collision with the van.

"The man suffered injuries to his hands and legs. Initial investigations found that they were travelling from the direction of the Kota Clinic towards Pekan Kota and changed lanes from left to right and were hit by the van travelling from Seremban towards Tampin,” he said in a statement.

He said Nana’s head injuries were severe, and she was brought to Rembau Hospital but was confirmed dead at 4.30pm.

The case is being investigated under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987. - Bernama
