As reported by FMT, After a lengthy 6 years of court appearances, Sam Ke Ting has been freed of all charges. The three-member panel comprised of Justices Hadhariah Ismail, Hashim Hamzah, and Azman Abdullah unanimously allowed her appeal and set aside her conviction and sentence under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act.

She was previously convicted and sentenced to six years' jail on April 13 2022 at the Johor Bahru High Court for dangerous driving causing the death of eight teenagers riding modified bicycles (basikal lajak).

In a report by The Star, Sam confesses that she's still haunted by the incident. Speaking to reporters, Sam addressed the families of the deceased teenagers to apologise and mentioned their names one by one.

"I admit that I was the one driving and caused the demise of your beloved children. However, I did not intend for the accident to happen."
