The accused was first charged with causing the death of 35-year-old Linda Mohammed Abdul
00:25
Aziz at an intersection of Jalan Bissar and Jalan Masjid at around 4.15am on November

He was then charged with causing the death of Linda's husband, 37-year-old Mohammed
00:38
Redzwan Mohammed Rudy, at the same time and place.

The couple had five children, aged between 3 and 17.

Nageshwaran was accused of driving a car with a blood alcohol content of 170mg per 100ml,

The offence was framed under section 44 sub section 1b of the Road Transport Act 1987

which carries a maximum prison term of 15 years and a fine of up to 100,000 ringgit
01:12
if found guilty.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Inspector S. Vikinswari offered bail at 15,000 ringgit for each of

the two charges.

However, Nageshwaran's lawyer Sarawana Kumakanan asked for a lower bail, saying that his client
01:29
was his family's sole breadwinner, having to take care of his parents and four siblings.

Magistrate Noor Farhana then set bail at 6,000 ringgit with one surety for each of the charges

The court also suspended the accused's driving licence and ordered him to surrender his passport
