KUALA KUBU BARU: A former trailer driver was sentenced to five years' jail and fined RM10,000 or 12 months' jail in default by the magistrate's court here on Wednesday (March 7) for driving in a dangerous and reckless manner which resulted in an accident that killed six in a family on the North-South Expressway last year.
Judge Zulhelmy Hasan, who sat as a magistrate, handed down the sentence on 28-year-old Muhammad Syahrul Nizam Anuar after finding that the defence had failed to raise reasonable doubts against the prosecution's case.
