Previously, she was arrested and investigated in accordance with Section 41 (1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 and Section 15 (1) (a) of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952 for causing death by reckless driving as well as being found positive for drugs as a result of urine screening tests.
This comes after she killed a Senior Soldier Mohd Rizal Buseri, 31, who died at the scene while she survived the crash.
Let’s hope justice is served. Let this also be a reminder for all Malaysians to not be reckless on the road.
