The police along with the Fire and Rescue Department today lifted the wreckage from the scene with the use of one crane and two trailers.

Bentong OCPD, Superintendent Mohd Mansor Mohd Nor said the bus would first be inspected at the scene of the accident and later inspected again at the Bentong police headquarters for a final analysis.

"We are unsure on how long the operation will take. There was heavy rain this morning, and the land might not be able to accommodate the weight.

"The ground is also uneven, so if the engineers feel that it's unsafe, we will halt the operation," he said.

Meanwhile 31 out of 37 bodies involved in the Genting bus crash have been identified.

Mansor said 20 out of the 31 identified bodies have been claimed. The claimed bodies were of 11 Chinese men, seven Chinese women, one Malay man and a Indonesian man.
