BUKIT MERTAJAM: The magistrate's court postponed the case of part-time model Ng Pei Ven who allegedly drove against the traffic and caused a fatal road accident in March as her lawyer was not present in court. Magistrate Jamaliah Abd Manap fixed Aug 3 for next mention of the case and submission of documents. Jamaliah reminded Ng to ensure that her counsel be present for the next mention. Ng, 19, told the court in Mandarin that her lawyer did not tell her why he was unable to attend the proceeding Wednesday.
