Warehouse worker pleads not guilty to driving under the influence, injuring two marathon runners

A 21-year-old warehouse worker pleaded not guilty to riding a motorcycle under the influence, injuring two people during a running event in Kuala Lumpur.

Charged under the Road Transport Act, the offence carries up to 10 years' imprisonment and a RM50,000 fine, with driving licence disqualification.

The court set bail at RM500 with surety for each charge, with the case mention scheduled for January 7, 2027.

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 5 —An e-commerce platform warehouse worker pleaded not guilty in the Magistrate’s Court here today to two charges of riding a motorcycle under the influence of alcohol, causing injuries to two participants of a running event last Saturday.

Muhammad Saiful Sabinee, 21, was charged with riding a motorcycle against the flow of traffic with an alcohol level of 184 milligrams (mg) per 100 millilitres (ml) of blood, resulting in injuries to Mazni Lamin, 50, and Azwan Ibrahim, 41, on Jalan Munshi, near a clothing store here, at 6.14 am on Oct 3.

The charges were framed under Section 44(1A)(b) of the Road Transport Act 1987, which provides for a minimum prison sentence of seven years and a maximum of 10 years, as well as a fine of up to RM50,000, upon conviction.

The provision also stipulates that a person convicted may be disqualified from holding or obtaining a driving licence for a period of not less than seven years from the date of conviction.

Earlier, Deputy Public Prosecutor Nurbatrisyia Mohd Razib proposed bail of RM10,000 with one surety for each charge, noting that the accused did not possess a driving licence.

Lawyer Muhammad Iqbal Azmi from the National Legal Aid Foundation, representing Muhammad Saiful, appealed for a bail reduction, saying that his client was single and earned RM1,500 a month.

“My client has four siblings, one of whom is still in school, and his mother is present today to act as his surety,” he said.

Magistrate Aliaa Anwar granted Muhammad Saiful bail of RM500 with one surety for each charge and set Jan 7, 2027, for case mention and submission of documents. — Bernama

一名 21 岁的仓库工人否认在吉隆坡的一次跑步活动中酒后骑摩托车造成两人受伤。

根据《道路交通法》，该罪行最高可判处 10 年监禁和 5 万令吉罚款，并吊销驾驶执照。

法庭对每项指控设定了 500 令吉的保释金，并要求提供担保，案件将于 2027 年 1 月 7 日再次开庭审理。

吉隆坡，10月5日讯——一名电子商务平台仓库工人今天在吉隆坡地方法庭对两项指控拒不不认罪，这两项指控分别是上周六酒后骑摩托车导致两名跑步比赛参与者受伤。

21 岁的 Muhammad Saiful Sabinee 被控于 10 月 3 日上午 6 点 14 分在 Jalan Munshi 一家服装店附近逆向驾驶摩托车，其血液酒精含量为每 100 毫升 184 毫克，导致 50 岁的 Mazni Lamin 和 41 岁的 Azwan Ibrahim 受伤。

这些指控是根据 1987 年道路交通法第 44(1A)(b) 条提出的，该条规定，一旦罪名成立，最低刑期为 7 年，最高刑期为 10 年，并可处以最高 50,000 令吉的罚款。

该条款还规定，被判有罪的人，自定罪之日起至少七年内，不得持有或取得驾驶执照。

此前，副检察官努尔巴特里西亚·莫哈末·拉齐布建议对每项指控处以 10,000 令吉的保释金，并要求一名担保人，同时指出被告没有驾驶执照。

代表穆罕默德·赛福尔的全国法律援助基金会律师穆罕默德·伊克巴尔·阿兹米请求降低保释金，称他的当事人是单身，每月收入1500令吉。

“我的当事人有四个兄弟姐妹，其中一个还在上学，他的母亲今天到场为他作担保，”他说。
