Sam's charge defective, reckless driving conviction cannot stand, Appeals Court told

PUTRAJAYA: Clerk Sam Ke Ting's conviction for reckless driving that killed eight teen cyclists cannot stand as the charge framed against her was defective, the Court of Appeal was told on Friday (March 31).

Her lawyer, Datuk Hisyam Teh Poh Teik, submitted that there was duplicity of the charge as the public prosecutor had included two distinct offences in the charge, namely reckless driving and driving in a dangerous manner.
