KUALA LUMPUR – A total 583 applications for inter-state travel via flights at the Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport in Subang, here, were rejected from April 30 until yesterday.
Petaling Jaya district police chief Mohamad Fakhrudin Abdul Hamid said this was because the applications were found to be unjustified and illogical, and the travel documents submitted were either invalid or incomplete.
He said the applications approved were only for those attending the funerals of close family members, such as their own partners, children, parents or siblings; emergencies; and, long-distance married couples.
“All the applications must be approved by the police through an interstate travel permit prior to making any bookings or purchase of flight tickets.
“The Petaling Jaya police reminds the public that showing proof that a flight ticket has been purchased is not a strong reason to secure an interstate travel permit,” he said in a statement.
Meanwhile, he said the police had recorded the statements of 15 individuals following a tahnik ceremony for the child of renowned singer Datuk Seri Siti Nurhaliza Tarudin, who was said to have flouted the standard operating procedures (SOPs) of the conditional movement control order (CMCO) on April 26.

Ampang Jaya district police chief Mohamad Farouk Esha said among those called were the organiser, dignitaries and a preacher.
“The investigation is being updated before it is referred to the deputy public prosecutor for further action,” he said in a statement.
In another development, the police issued an RM10,000 compound against the joint management of a premises in the capital for failing to instruct residents to scan the MySejahtera app or write down their names in a registration book.
Dang Wangi district police chief Mohamad Zainal Abdullah urged all premises owners to continue to comply with the SOPs set by the National Security Council.
“It is the responsibility of the owners of the premises to ensure all residents and visitors comply with the SOP,” he said in a statement. – Bernama, May 8, 2021
