FRU crash driver charged with handling stolen cows in Teluk Intan
KUALA LUMPUR, May 20 — A lorry driver involved in a crash that killed nine Federal Reserve Unit (FRU) personnel last week was charged in the Teluk Intan Magistrates' Court today with allegedly transporting two stolen cows.
The accused, 45-year-old Rudi Zulkarnain Mat Radi, pleaded not guilty after a court interpreter read the charge before Magistrate Naidatul Athirah Azman, Berita Harian reported.
According to the charge, Rudi allegedly transferred a stolen black KK Cross bull and a white Brahman bull belonging to a 66-year-old man from a farm in Kampung Keli Sungai, Hutan Melintang.
He is accused of committing the offence at Kampung Kebun Baru, Hutan Melintang at around 6pm on April 14, 2025.
The charge under Section 414 of the Penal Code carries a penalty of up to seven years in prison, a fine, or both upon conviction.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Izzuddin Fakri Hamdan led the prosecution while lawyer Mohd Hafizudin Khan Norkhan represented the accused.
The court allowed Rudi bail of RM3,000 with one surety and set June 16 for case mention, following his re-arrest after being granted RM6,000 bail in the FRU fatal crash case.
Last Friday, he pleaded not guilty at the Teluk Intan Magistrate's Court to nine charges under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 for driving dangerously and causing the deaths of the FRU officers on May 13.

Kota Kinabalu: A 43-year-old jobless was jailed six years and fined RM2,000 in default three months for causing hurt to his son with a wooden stick. Shahmar Asecio pleaded guilty before Sessions Court Judge Marlina Ibrahim, to the charge against him. Advertisement He hurt to his 16-year-old son by hitting him with the wood at 11.30am on June 2, this year at a house in Kg Baitam Laut, Membakut. The offence is framed under Section 324/326A of the Penal Code. The court ordered Shahmar to serve the jail sentence concurrently with the sentence for another offence. In mitigation, Shahmar who was not represented asked for a lenient sentence. Advertisement However, Deputy Public Prosecutor Afiqah Alya urged the court to impose a heavy sentence to deter and give a lesson not only to Shahmar but public at large from committing such offence. The court heard that while the son was in the kitchen Shahmar came from behind and hit him with wood on his shoulder, head and right leg. The victim's mother then tried to stop Shahmar who suddenly took a machete and threatened the victim with the weapon. The son who was in fear then lodged a police report which led to Shahmar's arrest on the same day. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?
