RAWANG – 10 compounds have been issued to the hosts and guests for violating the standard operating procedures (SOP) of Aidilfitri Celebration during the Movement Control Order (MCO) 3.0 in an inspection conducted by the Gombak District Police Headquarters (IPD) today.
The Gombak District Police Chief, Assistant Commissioner Arifai Tarawe said, the two houses involved were located in Kampung Kenanga and Rawang Perdana.
“At the first house, we have fined three individuals namely, the host and two guests and then, we moved on to Rawang Perdana and found out that a house was receiving guests.
“Seven guests from various areas visited that house and we have issued the compound, including to the host. We have issued 10 compounds in total and each costs RM2,000.
“The compound issued was RM2,000 and not RM25,000 as made viral in the social media,” he told the journalists after the Aidilfitri SOP observation operation.
