A 19-year-old university student is set to be charged in a magistrate's court over a fatal car accident that occurred in June, resulting in the death of four family members. The suspect will face charges for reckless and dangerous driving along Jalan Renggam-Simpang Renggam, with potential penalties of up to five years in prison, a fine between RM5,000 and RM15,000, and a driving license disqualification for at least two years.
