JPJ to audit bus operator after UPM crash injuring children
KUALA LUMPUR: The Road Transport Department (JPJ) will conduct a Safety Inspection and Audit (JISA) on the bus operator involved in a recent accident transporting a kindergarten group near Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) in Serdang. JPJ director-general Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli confirmed the department received the incident report and has forwarded it to the police. 'JPJ will conduct a JISA on the bus operator and take further action once the audit report is completed,' he told Bernama. The crash occurred at 12.18 pm yesterday, involving a bus carrying five teachers and 30 children. Viral dashcam footage showed the vehicle losing control before hitting a tree. Three children and a teacher suffered head injuries but were treated as outpatients at Serdang Hospital. Serdang police chief ACP Muhamad Farid Ahmad stated the driver, a 44-year-old man, was detained under Section 42 of the Road Transport Act 1987. Investigations suggest he experienced a microsleep due to fatigue, though no drugs or alcohol were involved. 'Records show the driver has 13 prior traffic summonses,' Muhamad Farid added. The suspect has been remanded for two days to assist in the probe. – Bernama

Terengganu lecturer and Pahang engineer scammed in RM400,000 in separate investment cons
KUALA TERENGGANU, Aug 3 — Two men lost a total of more than RM400,000 after falling victim to separate online investment scams, one of which also involved a love scam. In Kuala Terengganu, a 54-year-old lecturer was cheated out of RM172,170 after being lured into a cryptocurrency investment scheme by a woman he met through the TilMatch app. In a statement today, police chief ACP Azli Mohd Noor said the victim made five transfers totalling RM162,170 but received no returns, and later realised he had been duped when asked to invest more. The same victim also fell prey to a love scam involving another woman he met on the same app. An accomplice posing as a courier company representative demanded RM12,500 for the release of a parcel purportedly held by customs. The victim paid RM10,000 with his remaining savings before discovering the account was linked to fraud. Meanwhile, in Jerantut, Pahang, a 67-year-old engineer lost RM230,000 after joining a non-existent investment scheme offered via WhatsApp. In a statement today, Pahang police chief Datuk Seri Yahaya Othman said the man was promised returns of up to RM150,000 for a RM50,000 investment and made nine transfers to four bank accounts between July 16 and 3. He became suspicious after being repeatedly asked to pay more due to alleged processing issues. Both cases are being investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating. — Bernama
