All of them were issued with compounds of RM4,000 each under Regulation 17 (1) of  the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases (Measures within Infected Local Areas) Regulations, National Recovery Plan 2021.

Sentul district police chief Beh Eng Lai said during the 1am raid, all the individuals, aged between 19 and 42, were drinking alcohol and listening to loud music.
