And even though there is existing penal code for that, I understood that there was one case, a murder charge was used as well. Is this first in the world?<br /><br />Would like to ask opinions on food poisoning. What if a food seller or producer causes death by poisoning a person? Is that considered as a murder? If yes why? If no, why?<br /><br /><a href='https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2020/06/03/039puding-buih039-food-poisoning-victim-dies#cxrecs_s' target='_blank'>https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2020...m-dies#cxrecs_s</a><br /><br />It was reported expired eggs. And sometimes contaminated materials, , overuse of boric acid, etc. All these indicating negligence even though not intentional. The same as drink driving - I am sure when a person drink driving, the intention is not to kill someone.<br /><br />How about those bus drivers who cause deaths because of speeding? How about Boeing which faulty plane causing death?<br /><br /> ejmaster Kopitiam Wed, 03 Jun 2020 20:52:30 +0800
