KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 11 — A car washer was brought before the Magistrate’s Court today on a charge of murdering a lorry driver in a fatal accident on Jalan Kuching here earlier this month.

Mohamad Imran Taj Maloor, 32, nodded in understanding after the charge was read out before Magistrate Faezahnoor Hassan.

No plea was recorded from the accused, as murder cases fall under the jurisdiction of the High Court.

He is accused of killing Indonesian lorry driver Yudi Hartono, 39, on Jalan Kuching heading from the city centre towards Segambut at 4.44am on November 4.
