A 32-year-old car washer has been charged with murder at the Kuala Lumpur Magistrate’s Court following a fatal drink-driving crash on Jalan Kuching that killed an Indonesian lorry driver.

KUALA LUMPUR: 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.
