MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) -Amad Diallo scored his first Premier League goal and assisted on another to power Manchester United to a 3-2 victory over Newcastle United on Wednesday at Old Trafford in a battle between teams fighting for a European berth next season.

PETALING JAYA: The legal suit against the Kelana Jaya LRT owner and operator filed by a victim of the 2021 LRT collision should be expeditiously settled out of court, instead of being prolonged, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong .

Dr Wee said Lee should be treated humanely by the Madani government, instead of being put through court proceedings that could take years and at significant costs to the government and the courts.“She has already suffered since three years ago. The government should not make her suffer further by having to wait and incur another four years of legal bills while waiting for the hearings to start in 2028,” said Dr Wee, who is MCA president.

Lee filed the suit in December last year, naming Prasarana Malaysia Bhd and its subsidiary, Rapid Rail Sdn Bhd, as defendants whom she accused of failing to ensure her safety, security and well-being when she used the LRT. A special investigation panel team led by the Transport Ministry had proposed 23 recommendations to improve the operational and safety aspects of LRT services after determining the circumstances leading to the collision.
