KUALA LUMPUR (April 14): From tomorrow, the movement control order (MCO) violators will be booked and brought straight to court, Senior Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced today.
“We see that the rakyat are acting as if they don’t care or are not afraid of the laws we have today. Maybe RM1,000 is not seen as too high to scare them, those of whom are still continuously violating the MCO.
“So we agreed that the police, beginning tomorrow, won’t focus on compounds. Beginning tomorrow, those who are caught will be remanded and brought straight to court.
“Let the court decide, because based on Section 24 of Act 342, the court can punish them not more than two years imprisonment and for a subsequent offence, five years imprisonment,” Ismail Sabri was reported saying by The Malay Mail.
