According to Selangor Police Chief Hussein Omar Khan, the plane collided with a car and a motorcycle, each of which was transporting a single individual, as reported by the state newspaper Berita Harian.

“Forensic personnel are in the process of collecting the remains and will bring them to the Tengku Ampuan Rahimah Hospital in Klang for a post-mortem examination and identification process,” Khan said, according to the state newspaper, adding that the Ministry of Transport will conduct an investigation.

The ongoing investigations are being led by Transport Minister Anthony Loke.

“No one survived the crash,” he said at a press conference. “Victims (on the road) will also still need to be identified, will update in due time. Forensic confirmation needs to be taken.”

Footage and pictures captured by Malaysian media depicted a section of the highway that had been cordoned off due to a fire, accompanied by smoke in the atmosphere.
