Teen accused of causing three deaths to file representations
Lawyer for the accused, Johan Radzi, told this to magistrate Nurul Azuin Mohd Talhah when the case came up for mention.
'We will file a representation after we get the relevant documents from the prosecution,' he said.
On April 22, the accused claimed trial to a charge of causing the deaths of Muhammad Aidil Ramdan Abdullah, 15, Muhammad Aswari Lotpi, 16, and Aisar Azim Abdullah, 17.
The offence was allegedly committed at the Taman Matahari junction along Jalan Persiaran Senawang 1 near here at 8.30pm on March 6.
The charge under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 carries a jail term of between five and 10 years and a fine of between RM20,000 and RM50,000, upon conviction.
The accused had also claimed trial to another charge of driving without a valid licence.
He was charged under Section 26(1) of the same Act, which carries a fine of between RM300 and RM2,000, imprisonment of up to three months or both, upon conviction.
Johan said his client will also be filing a representation for this charge.
The court fixed June 26 to hear the outcome of the representations.
