Chasing The Plane, Deputy Chairperson Of The West Tanjung Jabung DPRD Abandoned The Death Toll Who Was Hit

JAKARTA - The Fortuner car carrying the Deputy Chairperson of the West Tanjung Jabung Regency DPRD, Sjafril Simamora, hit a motorcycle rider to death. Ironically, the Deputy Speaker of the DPRD left the victim who was hit dead just to catch a plane to Jakarta.

This deadly accident occurred on Jalan Lintas Jambi-Kuala Tungkal, Simpang Tuan Village, Menharhaha Ulu District, East Tanjung Jabung Regency at around 13.00 on Thursday, March 30.

The victim who died, on behalf of Siti Nurasina (17) suffered a broken head due to a hard collision with a car driven by Misrani (47) years old, an ASN who became a Sjafril driver.

Meanwhile, another victim, Dea Asmarani (18), had to be referred to a hospital in Jambi City. The two victims are known to be students, residents of Sungai Toman Village.

Head of Tanjung Jabung Timur Jambi Traffic Police, Iptu Agung Prasetyo, said that the car accident that was boarded by the Deputy Chairman of the West Tanjung Jabung DPRD began when the Mio motorbike driven by the victims wanted to prioritize the truck in front of them towards Kuala Tungkal.

From the opposite direction, a Fortuner car with the number BH 1081 BS came at high speed, so the collision could not be avoided.

"We have secured Fortuner drivers for further legal proceedings, as well as two vehicles involved in the accident at the Tanjab Timur Jambi Police Headquarters," said Agung.

The Fortuner driver and Deputy Chairman of the Syafril DPRD were not injured. Meanwhile, it is known that the Deputy chairman of the West Tanjab DPRD, Sjafril Simamora, immediately left the scene for fear of missing the plane.

The information gathered was that on the day of the accident Sjafril Simamora was about to catch a 15.00 WIB flight to Jakarta from Sultan Thaha Jambi Airport. Until now, the Deputy Chairman of the Tanjab DPRD admitted that he was traumatized and was not willing to be interviewed by the media crew.
