TEMERLOH: Siti Fairrah Ashyikin Kamaruddin, or Kiki, the woman driver of the white Peugeot car who is alleged to have bullied an elderly man using a steering lock here earlier this week, will be charged in court tomorrow.

Pahang CID chief Datuk Zakaria Ahmad said police had also recorded statement from the woman last Thursday.

“She was detained at the Kuantan police headquarters at 4 pm last Thursday, but was released on police bail on the same day as the police were satisfied with her statement,” he told reporters here yesterday.

Zakaria said the case was still being investigated under Section 427 of the Penal Code for causing mischief and Section 506 of the same Code for criminal intimidation.

The incident occurred at about 1.10pm last Monday at the parking lot of the Urban Transformation Centre (UTC).

The woman’s road rage behaviour against the 68-year-old government pensioner, was recorded by members of the public who were at the scene and was uploaded onto several social websites until the video lasting 2.33 minutes became viral and ‘trending’. — Bernama
