Six people fined RM20,000 for dining in during lockdown

KUALA LUMPUR – The owner of an eatery at a famous shopping mall in the capital was issued a RM10,000 compound during a movement control order (MCO) standard operating procedure (SOP) compliance inspection today.

Kuala Lumpur Crime Prevention and Community Safety Department chief Datuk Azman Ayob said during the 12.45pm operation, five customers eating at the premises were also issued RM2,000 compounds each.

“Police checks revealed the customers were eating at the premises and did not comply with the set SOPs, which states no dining in,” he said in a statement.

He added that police will intensify checks and stern action will be taken against those who fail to comply with the SOPs to ensure that the Covid-19 infection chain is broken.

The case is being investigated under Regulation 16 PU (A) 243/2021 PKP. – Bernama, June 3, 2021
