SINGAPORE - The driver who fled the scene of the Tampines crash that killed a motorcyclist and his pregnant wife was behind the wheel despite being disqualified from driving until March 2032.

According to charge sheets seen by The Straits Times on Nov 3, Muhammad Zulfiqar Abdul Aziz, 30, drove the car despite being under a six-year driving disqualification from March 2026 to March 2032.

Court papers also showed that he had been convicted on two separate occasions of driving while under disqualification, in November 2021 and July 2025.

Zulfiqar is alleged to have driven dangerously and failed to keep proper control of the vehicle while making a left bend, causing the car to drive through a centre divider, metal railings and into the opposing lane of traffic, where it crashed into a motorcycle and another car.

Those vehicles were travelling straight along Tampines Avenue 8 towards Pasir Ris Drive 8.

He was handed the nine charges on Oct 31. They are for:

Dangerous driving causing death

Dangerous driving causing hurt

Driving under disqualification

Failing to stop after an accident

Failing to render assistance after an accident

Using a motor vehicle without insurance coverage

Using a deregistered vehicle

Using a vehicle without a licence

Exhibiting a false licence plate

The Oct 29 accident occurred at around 10.35pm.

The motorcyclist and his pregnant wife, who was riding pillion, died after being taken to hospital. The couple, both 24, leave behind a six-year-old son.

A gag order was issued on the identities of the victims because of their son.

Family members told The Straits Times that the couple were expecting a second child.

The victims were buried next to each other at Choa Chu Kang Muslim Cemetery on Oct 30.

Zulfiqar was not offered bail after the judge found he posed a flight risk. His case will be heard again on Nov 27.

Those convicted of dangerous driving causing death can be jailed for up to eight years, and those convicted of using a deregistered vehicle can be jailed for up to two years and fined $20,000.

新加坡——肇事逃逸的司机在淡滨尼撞死一名摩托车手及其怀孕的妻子后逃逸，而该司机当时已被吊销驾照至2032年3月。

据《海峡时报》11月3日看到的控状显示，30岁的穆罕默德·祖尔菲卡尔·阿卜杜勒·阿齐兹在2026年3月至2032年3月期间被吊销驾照六年，但他仍然驾驶了这辆车。

法庭文件还显示，他曾两次因在被取消驾驶资格期间驾驶而被定罪，分别在 2021 年 11 月和 2025 年 7 月。

据称，祖尔菲卡尔危险驾驶，在左转弯时未能保持对车辆的适当控制，导致汽车冲过中央隔离带、金属护栏，驶入对向车道，撞上一辆摩托车和另一辆汽车。

这些车辆沿淡滨尼8道直行驶向巴西立8道。

他于10月31日被控九项罪名，罪名包括：

危险驾驶致人死亡

危险驾驶致人受伤

无证驾驶

事故发生后未停车

事故发生后未能提供援助

使用未投保的机动车辆

使用已注销车辆

无证驾驶车辆

使用伪造车牌

10月29日的事故发生在晚上10点35分左右。

摩托车驾驶员和他怀孕的妻子（当时坐在后座）被送往医院后不治身亡。这对夫妇均为24岁，留下一个6岁的儿子。

由于受害者是他们的儿子，因此下达了禁止透露受害者身份的禁令。

家人告诉《海峡时报》，这对夫妇即将迎来第二个孩子。

10月30日，两名遇难者被埋葬在蔡厝港穆斯林公墓，彼此相邻。

法官认为祖尔菲卡尔有潜逃风险，因此未准予保释。他的案件将于11月27日再次开庭审理。

因危险驾驶致人死亡而被定罪者，最高可判处八年监禁；因使用注销车辆而被定罪者，最高可判处两年监禁并处罚款 20,000 美元。
