Woman's foot severed after being dragged in motorcycle collision

Woman's foot severed after being dragged in motorcycle collision

GEORGE TOWN: A female pedestrian had her foot severed in a freak accident with a motorcycle at Lebuhraya Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu, here today.

The woman, a 44-year-old Indonesian, was crossing the busy road on foot at 1.40am, headed towards Jalan Gurdwara when she was hit by a motorcycle coming from Pengkalan Weld.

The woman became entangled with the motorcycle and was dragged for several metres. This led to the woman's foot being severed.

Northeast district police chief Assistant Commissioner Mior Farid Alathrash Wahid said the woman was conscious when she was taken to the Penang Hospital, along with her severed foot.

"There is a big possibility that the victim's leg cannot be re-attached because the nerves and veins had been irreparably damaged.

"The motorcyclist fled on foot from the area, leaving his motorcycle at the scene.

'We believe that the motorcyclist is seeking treatment for his injuries at a private hospital," he told reporters here today.

There was no closed-circuit television camera in the area for police to obtain the accident footage from. Police, he said, are still trying to identify the motorcyclist.

High Court set bail at RM1 million for Lim Guan Eng

The High Court set bail at RM1 million for Lim Guan Eng this afternoon after the Penang chief minister claimed trial to two corruption charges.

After his plea was recorded, Attorney-General Tan Sri Mohamed Apandi Ali, who led the prosecution team, proposed the bail sum and asked that Lim be compelled to inform the court if he planned to travel abroad.
During mitigation, Lim’s lead counsel Gobind Singh Deo requested for the accused to be allowed to inform the court and the AG’s Chambers of this travel plans two days before departure.

Judicial Commissioner Datuk Azmi Ariffin granted the request and agreed not to impound Lim’s passport, also setting bail at RM1 million with one surety.
Lim Guan Eng First Charges

Lim Guan Eng Second Charges


Phang Li Koon Charges


In the case of businesswoman Phang Li Koon, who also claimed trial to her charge, Apandi asked for bail to be set at RM200,00 with one surety and no additional conditions, which the court allowed.
Azmi later fixed September 22 for case management in chambers for both cases.
Lim and Phang are facing charges over an allegedly corrupt house purchase deal they struck last year.
Lim is facing two charges ― one under Section 23 of the MACC Act and another under Section 165 of the Penal Code.
He is accused of using his public office or position to obtain gratification for himself and his wife, Betty Chew, by approving an application by Magnificent Emblem to convert agricultural land to residential purpose during a state planning committee meeting on July 18, 2014.
Section 23 carries a jail term of not more than 20 years and a fine of five times the value of gratification or RM10,000 whichever is higher.
In the Penal Code charge, Lim is alleged to have used his position to obtain gratification by purchasing his house from Phang at RM2.8 million, which was below the property’s market value of RM4.27 million on July 28, 2015.
The second offence is punishable by up to two years’ imprisonment, a fine, and forfeiture of property upon conviction.
Phang meanwhile has been charged with abetment under Section 109 of the Penal Code over the sale of the house on Jalan Pinhorn to Lim.- Reffer to Malay Mail Online

Rare Arrest of a sitting Chief Minister on Graft charges



MACC yesterday Electrified the country by making a rare arrest of a sitting chief minister on graft charges.
Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng, a leading opposition figure, was flanked by about a dozen Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) officials and plainclothes policemen as he was escorted out of his office, with dozens of journalists swarming the place.
The arrest followed three months of accusations by Umno leaders that Mr Lim had benefited in buying his bungalow on Pinhorn Penang island from businesswoman Phang Li Koon, and that she was allegedly involved in business deals with the Penang state government that he leads.
The 55-year-old is secretary-general of the (DAP), the most popular ethnic Chinese party in Malaysia. The DAP won 38 seats in the federal Parliament in the 2013 General Election, forming the second-largest single bloc of MPs after Umno's 88 seats.
