Family of motorcyclist killed months before daughter\u2019s wedding appeals for witnesses<\/h2>\n

The family of Piara Singh, a 61-year-old motorcyclist who died in a traffic accident on the Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE) on 29 Dec 2025, is appealing to the public for eyewitnesses and dashcam footage to help them understand what happened.<\/p>\n

In an appeal shared publicly on the Death Kopitiam Singapore Facebook page on Friday (9 Jan), the family said they chose to speak out \u201cnot to speculate on the cause of the accident or to blame any party, but to seek a more comprehensive understanding of what happened<\/a>\u201c.<\/p>\n
