Unemployed man pleads not guilty to attempted murder of two cops


KUALA LUMPUR: An unemployed man has pleaded not guilty in the Sessions Court here to two charges of attempting to murder two policemen.

Quah Mun Foo, 49, was charged on Tuesday (Oct 14) with ramming his car into Kpl Imanuil Soineh, 34, and Sub-Insp Mohd Nor Erzuwan, 38, at the entrance of an apartment in Jalan Tasik Permaisuri and at a traffic light junction in Bandar Tasik Permaisuri, Cheras between 11.30pm and 11.40pm on Aug 30, knowing that the act could cause their deaths.

The charge, framed under Section 307 of the Penal Code, carries a maximum imprisonment of 10 years and a fine, and if the act causes injury, the sentence may extend to 20 years in jail upon conviction.
