Pemandu mengaku tak salah sebabkan kematian kanak-kanak dalam nahas Jalan Kuching

Raeven Goh, a 24-year-old bank sales assistant, has pleaded not guilty in the Kuala Lumpur High Court to charges of causing the death of a five-year-old girl in a multi-vehicle accident on Jalan Kuching last Saturday. The incident occurred when Goh allegedly drove an electric vehicle recklessly from Kuching to Segambut on October 10.

He also pleaded not guilty to charges of dangerous and careless driving, under Section 42(1) of the same Act, which carries a maximum sentence of five years in jail, a fine of RM5,000 to RM15,000, and a driving license suspension of at least two years. For the third charge, of failing to stop his vehicle after the accident, Goh admitted to no guilt under Section 52(1) of the Act, facing a maximum of six months in jail or a RM2,000 fine.

The court granted Goh bail of RM36,000 with a surety for each charge. Aliaa ordered Goh to surrender his passport and suspend his driving license until the case is resolved. The court set a hearing for November 19 to manage the case. The prosecution was handled by Deputy Public Prosecutor Fadhly Zamry and Wafi Husain, while Goh was represented by lawyer Kailash Sharma.
