00:00Before watching the video, let me remind you that there is more content on the Hotline.
00:30This is the story of 18-year-old Heng Yi's middle school graduate, Kai Heng.
00:34A young man's life has come to an end, and his family is heartbroken.
00:38What makes his family even more upset is that their son, Heng Yi's middle school graduate,
00:43was hit by a Vietnamese woman for more than a month.
00:47But the female driver seems to be still out of the law, and has not been arrested.
00:52This makes the deceased's family very anxious.
00:54They are worried that this matter will not be settled in the end.
00:57So yesterday, with the help of Lail, a member of Congress in Rilodong District,
01:01they held a press conference to complain.
01:03They even made it to the front pages of various newspapers,
01:06causing public attention again.
01:08At yesterday's press conference, the family of the young victim pointed the finger at the police.
01:14The family questioned the police
01:16why a Vietnamese female driver, who was suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol,
01:20was detained for only one day and then released.
01:23Where is the justice?
01:24Who should be responsible if she flees back to the country in time?
01:28The family's lawyer said,
01:30in general, if a foreigner is involved in a case,
01:33the court usually does not allow bail,
01:36because there is a high chance that the suspect will escape.
01:38Even if the bail is allowed, the court will also set strict conditions,
01:42such as requiring the suspect to hand over his passport,
01:45hand over a high amount of bail,
01:47and prohibit driving until the case is over.
01:50This lawyer said that no one knows
01:53if the female driver who was arrested has left Malaysia.
01:57They don't even know if she has ever driven on the road in Penang
02:01and harmed other road users.
02:04The family of the victim questioned
02:06why the police have not taken any action on the arrested female driver until today.
02:11They also questioned whether the investigation had not been completed
02:14and whether it was waiting for someone's instructions.
02:16Laila, a member of parliament in the Jiluodong District,
02:18could not help but say that this case is full of doubts.
02:22The authorities have not given a clear answer yet.
02:24Did the prosecutor conduct a alcohol test on the female driver?
02:28Why did the police allow the female driver to obtain bail?
02:31Laila also said that she did not.
02:33She questioned whether the Vietnamese female driver knew a certain person
02:37and had a background, so she was not brought to justice.
02:40Can she still be released?
02:43Faced with family and public opinion,
02:45the chief police officer of Penang, Hanzha Ah Mo,
02:47also held a press conference to explain
02:49that the police followed the SOP
02:51and completed the investigation within 24 hours of the incident
02:54and let the Vietnamese female driver remain in custody.
02:56He also said that the police would hand over the investigation report to the prosecutor.
03:00As for whether to release her,
03:02it is not up to the police to decide,
03:04but the prosecutor's responsibility.
03:06However, when asked if the police had detained the female driver's international passport,
03:10the Penang police force did not respond.
03:13It's just that the case is still under investigation.
03:16In addition, the deputy police chief of Penang, Dongbei County,
03:19Li Rui, also said that
03:21the police are still waiting for the autopsy report and test report of this case.
03:26He also said that because the case is related to life,
03:28the police will conduct a rigorous investigation and must not be hasty.
03:31He mentioned that the professional reports used for the investigation
03:34are held by various agencies.
03:36For example, the Central Hospital is responsible for providing the autopsy report,
03:39and the Forensic Service is responsible for the test report.
03:42These reports take several months to identify and process.
03:45The police must wait for the completion of the report submitted by these agencies
03:50before they can submit an investigation report to the Prosecutor General's Office.
03:53The deputy police chief of Penang, Dongbei County, also said
03:56that the police will suggest to the Prosecutor General's Office
03:59to provide this Vietnamese-class female driver
04:02with Article 41 of the Road Traffic Act of 1987,
04:04which is the crime of reckless driving that caused the death of passengers or others.
