Woman pleads not guilty to attempted murder of cop in Setapak
PETALING JAYA : A woman pleaded not guilty in the Kuala Lumpur sessions court today to a charge of attempting to murder a police officer by ramming her car into him and causing injury earlier this month.
Cham Shan Jer, 31, was accused of ramming her car into Fahrulradi Sabran at Jalan Usahawan 6, Setapak, at about 11.15pm on Aug 1, Bernama reported.
She was charged under Section 307 of the Penal Code, which provides for up to 10 years' imprisonment and a fine, and up to 20 years' jail if the act causes injury.
Deputy public prosecutor Ikhwan Nasir objected to bail, citing the seriousness of the case involving an alleged attempt to kill a police officer.
Defence counsel Nurul Fatihah Abdul Ghani requested the minimum bail amount, saying her client, a single mother of three, also cares for her elderly parents.
Judge Azrol Abdullah denied bail and fixed Sept 23 for case mention and submission of documents.

MACC: Two journalists nabbed in smuggling ring formerly military intelligence, media job acts as front for syndicate
KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 15 — Two journalists among 10 people arrested for alleged involvement in a drug and contraband smuggling syndicate were also former military intelligence officers, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) revealed today. Its chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki said the two had opted for early retirement before taking up positions as journalists at an online media company. 'Based on our checks, their jobs as journalists were merely a front for their actual roles in the syndicate,' he was quoted saying by New Straits Times. Yesterday, the Magistrate's Court issued remand orders against 10 individuals, including five senior Malaysian Armed Forces officers, to assist the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission's (MACC) investigation into a smuggling syndicate operating in the country's south. The MACC said the others remanded comprise two journalists from an online media agency, a company manager, an administrative assistant at the Malaysian Medical Association, and a foreign woman. According to sources, the five senior military officers and five civilians, aged between 30 and 55, were arrested around the Klang Valley earlier this week in 'Ops Sohor', carried out by MACC's Intelligence Division with the cooperation of the police. The military intelligence officers are suspected of colluding with the syndicate by leaking operational information to help them evade enforcement. The smuggled goods allegedly brought into the country include drugs, cigarettes and other items from neighbouring countries, with an estimated value of about RM5 million a month. The raids followed about 12 months of intelligence gathering, and the suspects are believed to have received between RM30,000 and RM50,000 in bribes for each smuggling trip conducted. In the Wednesday operation, MACC also seized over RM63,000 in cash, several packages suspected to contain drugs, weighing and measuring equipment, liquor and imitation firearms found at the raided premises.

JPJ director-general Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli said the vehicles involved, namely a Toyota Alphard, Toyota Vellfire, Toyota Hiace and Honda Spada, each driven by a citizen of the republic, were detected carrying passengers from Singapore and other countries entering Malaysia via the Singapore route for tourism purposes. 'The results of the inspection found that the vehicles involved did not have a valid operator's license, were not registered as public service vehicles and did not have Malaysian road tax,' he said at a press conference at JPJ Taman Daya here, last night. According to him, all the vehicles were detained and seized under Section 80 of the Land Public Transport Act 2010 (APAD 2010) and are being investigated under Section 16(1) of the same act for operating public service vehicles without a valid operator's license. 'There will be no more compromises for any illegal e-hailing vehicles operating in Malaysia. We will take this action to court for the process of confiscating the vehicle,' he said. Also present were JPJ senior enforcement director Muhammad Kifli Ma Hassan and Johor JPJ director Azmil Zainal Adnan. Aedy said initial investigations found that the drivers involved were promoting their services via social media, WhatsApp and Telegram applications, as well as stickers on vehicles, with travel charges much higher than the permitted rates. He gave an example of Singapore-Johor Bahru travel charges reaching S$180 (RM591) per person for one trip, while trips to Ipoh were recorded at up to S$1,200 (RM3,946) for one trip. 'This operation is being carried out continuously to combat irresponsible parties from continuing to take advantage, besides ensuring the safety of passengers and the integrity of the country's transport system is maintained,' he said, adding that the same operation will be expanded to other states. The public who have information about this activity are urged to channel it through the MyJPJ e-Aduan application or email to [email protected].
