Student at private institution charged with murder over fatal crash
N Vishwesh, who allegedly drove while under the influence of alcohol, is accused of murdering an elderly man in Banting, Selangor, on Aug 7.
A student at a private higher education institution, N Vishwesh, 23, has been charged with the murder of an elderly man, Eng Kim Kheng / Ng Kim Swee, 78, in Shah Alam. According to prosecutors, Vishwesh allegedly drove under the influence of alcohol resulting in the fatal crash. The incident took place at Km38 Jalan Klang-Banting-Port Dickson in Kuala Langat around 7.20pm on August 7.
The charge stems from Section 302 of the Penal Code, which can result in the death penalty, or 30 to 40 years imprisonment and a minimum of 12 lashes upon conviction. Vishwesh's legal representative, T Mishant, did not record a plea as such cases are under the High Court's jurisdiction. The court declined bail and set October 1 for the next mention. A viral video of the accident at the Kanchong Bengkok traffic light in Banting is also mentioned.
