The accident took place about 1230 midday and happened at the traffic light junction near Saujana Utama. The prison officer driving the car carrying Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim had to brake sharply to avoid an oncoming car and the escort car behind knocked into it. The car carrying Datuk Seri suffered damage mainly to the back of the car.

Datuk Seri Anwar fortunately did not suffer any serious physical injuries but was shaken up and has taken pain killers after being examined by the doctor at Penjara Sg Buloh. Datuk Dr Jeyaindran Tan Sri Sinnathurai, Deputy Director-General, Ministry of Health, is scheduled to see him at 5 pm today and to decide, after examining him, whether further treatment is needed at hospital.
