Sam freed on RM10,000 bail in ‘basikal lajak’ case

PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal has allowed clerk Sam Ke Ting to be freed on bail of RM10,000 in one surety, pending her bid for leave to appeal against her conviction and sentence in the modified bicycle, or “basikal lajak”, case.

Judge Ravinthran Paramaguru granted her bail application today after deputy public prosecutor Manoj Kurup told the court the prosecution did not have any objection.

Last week, the Johor Bahru High Court convicted Sam to six years’ jail and fined her RM6,000, for six months’ jail in default, for dangerous driving causing the death of eight teenagers, who were riding the modified bicycles in Johor Bahru in 2017. — Free Malaysia Today
