Perak cops: Lorry driver in fatal FRU crash remains in lock-up as no one pays RM6,000 bail
TELUK INTAN, May 17 — No party has posted bail for the lorry driver charged with dangerous driving that caused the deaths of nine Federal Reserve Unit (FRU) personnel here, according to police. Perak deputy police chief DCP Zulkafli Sariaat said that as a result, the accused, Rudi Zulkarnain Md Radi, 45, will remain in custody at the Batu Gajah lock-up until the next court mention date on June 17. 'Bail for the lorry driver was set at RM6,000, and he has been unable to pay. We have also not received any payment from others so far,' he told reporters after visiting Hospital Teluk Intan today. Earlier, the Sultan of Perak, Sultan Nazrin Shah, visited and offered his support to the FRU personnel receiving treatment at HTI following the fatal accident last Tuesday. Yesterday, the Teluk Intan Magistrate's Court set bail at RM6,000 after the lorry driver pleaded not guilty to the charges. Media reports today stated that some netizens have expressed interest in paying the bail amount. Zulkafli said a witness who claimed to have seen the lorry driver attempting to avoid another vehicle at the crash site has yet to come forward to assist in the investigation. 'If anyone comes forward, police will follow up with further investigation for trial purposes,' he said. He added that to date, 16 witnesses have been called to provide their statements. — Bernama

Foreign Speakers Need Special Accreditation To Deliver Talks In Perak
IPOH, May 5 (Bernama) -- Foreign speakers need to obtain special accreditation from the Sultan of Perak Sultan Nazrin Shah before they can deliver talks or hold educational and knowledge-based programmes in the state. Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad said that conditions for delivering Islamic teachings in the state also take into account the speaker's knowledge, experience, and personal character. 'For example, we recently invited Dr Abdul Somad Batubara, also known as Ustaz Abdul Somad, to give a talk in Lenggong. Although he did not possess accreditation from Perak, we issued a special accreditation to allow him to deliver the talk,' he said. 'We are not overly rigid - as long as the speaker is qualified, capable, and has received consent from His Royal Highness (Sultan Nazrin), then there is no issue,' he said at a press conference after launching the distribution of kitab (religious books) for mosques, Friday surau, across Perak, today. Saarani said that the certification serves as a mechanism to regulate and ensure that religious teachings are delivered accurately and in a manner that benefits the community. Commenting on today's programme, Saarani said that three selected books - Qalbun Salim, Sifat 20: Suatu Pengenalan Asas and Mutiara Minhajul Abidin - will be distributed to 740 mosques and surau across the state. He said the books, authored by Muhadir Haji Joll and Raja Ahmad Mukhlis Raja Jamaluddin, were selected for their clear and accessible language, suitable content, and balanced emphasis on both 'aqidah' and 'tasawwuf'. 'These books can be used by imams in mosques and surau to share religious knowledge with congregants, during the time between Maghrib and Isyak prayers each day. 'This approach is seen as simple, practical, and effective, while also helping to overcome challenges, such as the high cost of organising large-scale religious gatherings,' he said.
