Langgar 2 pelari, penunggang bawah pengaruh alkohol mengaku tak salah

Pekerja gudang platform e-tayangan, Muhammad Saiful Sabinee, 21, has been found not guilty by a Kuala Lumpur Magistrate Court after pleading not guilty to causing injury to two participants in a running event due to alcohol influence while riding a motorbike. The incident occurred at around 6:14 am on October 3, 2026, near a clothing store in Kuala Lumpur's Jalan Munshi.

Saiful, who had a blood alcohol level of 184mg per 100ml of blood, was accused of riding his motorbike against traffic, causing injury to Mazni Lamin, 50, and Azwan Ibrahim, 41. He was initially charged under Section 44(1A)(b) of the Road Transport Act 1987, which carries a minimum sentence of seven years and a maximum of ten years imprisonment, and a fine of up to RM50,000 if found guilty.

The court has allowed Saiful to post RM5,000 bail with a surety for each charge, with the case set to be heard on January 7, 2027. Earlier reports suggested that a motorbike rider was believed to be under the influence of alcohol while crossing against traffic before injuring two participants in the Kuala Lumpur Standard Chartered Marathon (KLSCM) 2026.

Police preliminary investigations revealed that the rider, along with a 19-year-old male accomplice, had crossed a closed road using a scooter, and the rider was directed to stop by a police officer on duty. However, the motorbike rider fled the scene before the incident occurred.
