TEMERLOH: The remand period for a 35-year-old woman who was arrested following a fatal accident involving a high-powered motorcycle on the East Coast Expressway (LPT1) on April 26, will be extended.
The woman and the passenger of her vehicle were earlier remanded for three days to assist in investigations.
Temerloh district police chief Assistant Commissioner Mazlan Hassan said police sought an extension to the remand period to complete the investigation.
"Today is an extension (remand), there is no decision (on the detention period) yet," he said here, today (April 29).
In an incident last Friday (April 26), a 34-year-old man, who worked as a musician at Kuala Lumpur City Hall (KL City Hall), died after his high-powered motorcycle collided with a Mitsubishi Triton four-wheel drive vehicle.
The four-wheel drive which was on the right lane had braked to avoid the woman who ran across the road.
The case is being investigated under Section 304(A) of the Penal Code for causing death through negligence.
