The hit-and-run driver of a BYD Seal involved in six-vehicle crash on Jalan Kuching that claimed the life of a five-year-old girl last Saturday (October 10, 2026) will be charged in the magistrate’s court today. This comes after the 24-year-old suspect was arrested soon after being discharged from a private hospital in Damansara and taken to the lock-up at the Dang Wangi district police headquarters yesterday (October 14).
According to NST, the suspect is expected to be charged under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 for causing death by reckless or dangerous driving. He also faces two other charges under Section 42(1) for reckless and dangerous driving as well as Section 52(1) for failing to stop after an accident.
