A remand order previously obtained on the 42-year-old-suspect from Tanah Putih here was supposed to have ended today.

In the 9.20pm incident on Monday, Irwan Herman Kamarudin, 41, was killed after the Toyota Yaris he was driving was hit by a Toyota C-HR car driven against traffic flow along Jalan Pintasan Kuantan here.

The suspect, who was believed to have been drunk at the time, drove against traffic for seven kilometres starting from the Jalan Pintasan Kuantan junction in Semambu.

He is believed to have consumed alcohol at his friend’s house in Semambu before the incident. — Bernama
