PKBM janji siasatan telus

KUALA LUMPUR - Persekutuan Kebangsaan Berbasikal Malaysia (PKBM) melalui jawatankuasa lebuh raya akan menyediakan laporan terperinci mengenai kemalangan yang berlaku ketika perlumbaan pemilihan ke Kejohanan Berbasikal Asia (ACC) 2012 di Putrajaya kelmarin secepat mungkin.

Menurut Timbalannya, Datuk Naim Mohamad, laporan tersebut nanti akan menerangkan keseluruhan tentang kejadian yang berlaku yang mengakibatkan empat pelumba negara Mariana Mohamad, Masziyaton Mohd. Radzi, Ahmad Azri Ahmad dan Abdul Azizi Zahid yang cedera kerana dirempuh kereta Perodua Kancil.

“Laporan ini akan diserahkan kepada Kementerian Belia dan Sukan (KBS) di mana ia akan menjelaskan tentang persiapan sehinggalah kejadian tersebut berlaku seperti mana yang diminta oleh Menteri, Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek,” katanya dalam sidang media di Hospital Pakar KPJ Damansara semalam.

Jelasnya, laporan tersebut tidak akan menyembunyikan apa-apa tentang kejadian yang berlaku sebaliknya ia akan meliputi butir-butir yang lengkap dan terperinci, di mana perlumbaan itu semuanya telah diatur dengan baik.

“Bagaimanapun ia menjadi pengajaran kepada kita bahawa aspek keselamatan perlu diutamakan dengan lebih mendalam agar ia tidak berlaku lagi buat kali kedua dan mengundang bahaya kepada pelumba,” katanya.

Ditanya mengenai tindakan yang diambil terhadap pemandu kereta tersebut, Naim berkata, PKBM telah membuat laporan polis di Putrajaya kelmarin dan menyerahkan perkara tersebut kepada pihak berkuasa.
“Sekarang tindakan di tangan pihak berkuasa untuk menentukan sama ada pemandu tersebut bersalah atau tidak mengikut undang-undang jalan raya, manakala jaminan bahawa basikal milik Mariana yang rosak teruk akibat kemalangan itu bakal diganti semula akan diserahkan kepada Majlis Sukan Negara (MSN).

“Terpulang kepada MSN untuk menggantikan basikal sama ada nilai yang sama dengan basikal asal milik Mariana. Semuanya perlu dilihat dari sudut bajet tambahan pula dia masih lagi di bawah program MSN,” katanya.

Mariana diletakkan sasaran untuk memenangi pingat emas dalam acara lebuh raya Sukan SEA 2013 Myanmar dan itu juga merupakan hasrat pelumba dari Sabah sebelum dia bersara dari acara berbasikal.
Mengenai ujian pemilihan pelumba lebuh raya untuk wanita dan remaja yang terpaksa ditamatkan serta-merta kelmarin, Naim berkata, mungkin pemilihan hanya dibuat berdasarkan keputusan perlumbaan sebelum ini, kecergasan dan pandangan jurulatih. Ini bermakna tidak ada lagi perlumbaan semula.

Ex-coach's jail sentence cut to a year

PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal yesterday sentenced former athletics coach C. Ramanathan to 12 months' jail for molesting two junior athletes 19 years ago. A three-man bench led by Datuk Mohd Hishamudin Mohd Yunus unanimously dismissed Ramanathan's appeal against conviction, but varied the jail sentence of four years to a year, which was to run concurrently. Following yesterday's ruling, Ramanathan, 75, a former teacher, walked out a free man as he had served 10 months in Kajang Prison. Convicts get one-third remission for good behaviour while in prison. However, he will lose his pension. Hishamudin, who sat with Datuk Abdul Wahab Patail and Datuk Linton Albert, said the court found no merit to overturn the conviction. "However, in reducing the sentence, we considered Ramanathan's age and the long years the appeal has taken." Deputy public prosecutor Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud submitted that then High Court judge Tan Sri Abdull Hamid E...

Badminton: Fans rooting for all-Malaysian semis

Reports: RAJES PAUL KUALA LUMPUR: The home fans will be rooting for an all-Malaysian men’s singles semi-final between Lee Chong Wei and Liew Daren. But Chong Wei is more fancied to advance than Daren in quarter-final matches against Indonesian Simon Santoso and Dane Peter Gade-Christensen respectively at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil today. Yesterday, Chong Wei defeated Vietnamese Nguyen Tien Minh 21-9, 18-21, 21-7 in a second-round match that saw the world number one struggling to adapt to the draught in the stadium in the second game. And Daren continued a fairy tale run in his home Open, blowing away a toothless Hsueh Hsuan-yi of Taiwan 21-14, 21-12. Although Choong Wei had to slog for the win over Tien Minh, the top seed and defending champion felt that he was playing better by the day. “I got off to a good start but found it hard to cope with the draught. I tried to catch up after losing my momentum but that did not happen and I decided to conserve energy for ...

Rajagobal Let Off The Hook

PETALING JAYA, April 24 (Bernama) -- National head coach Datuk K. Rajagobal was let off the hook by the Football Association of Malaysia's (FAM) Disciplinary Committee after finding no evidence that he had violated FAM's Article 88, as claimed. FAM Disciplinary Committee chairman Datuk Taufik Abdul Razak said the committee had decided not to charge Rajagobal after carefully analysing the video of the post-match press conference by the 56-year-old coach. "After listening to the recording of the post-match press conference, we decided to drop the charge against Rajagopal as he did not make such a statement. "Maybe his (Rajagobal) assessment and comments of the match was misconstrued by the media. There was no mention of the FAM policy throughout his comments," said Taufik after emerging from a three-hour Disciplinary Committee meeting at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya, here, Wednesday. Rajagobal who does not mince his words when asked to com...
