ALOR SETAR, Nov 13 — The daughter of Kedah Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor was injured in an accident near Kampung Alor Setol here yesterday.

Kota Setar police chief ACP Syed Basri Syed Ali said the 20-year-old, a student at Kolej Islam Darul Ulum in Pokok Sena, sustained injuries to her face and left hand, and was suspected of having fractured her right wrist.

“Preliminary investigations found that the accident occurred at about 4pm when the victim was riding a Yamaha X-Max 250 motorcycle from her college in Pokok Sena towards Alor Setar.

“Upon reaching the scene, she is believed to have lost control of the motorcycle, causing it to skid into a drain,” he said in a statement tonight.

He said members of the public and medical personnel assisted the victim before she was taken to Sultanah Bahiyah Hospital for further treatment. Her condition was reported to be stable.

“The case is being investigated under Section 43(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987,” he said. — Bernama
