KUALA LUMPUR: All traffic summonses issued for violations in 2022 and earlier are eligible for the special settlement rate of RM50 except those which are pending settlement in court as they are out of police purview.
PETALING JAYA: A sundry shop owner in Kelantan who was issued a RM50,000 compound for allegedly violating the movement control order says he only has his shop to offer as payment.
KUALA LUMPUR: The RM50,000 compound imposed on two sellers in Kota Baru for operating beyond 10pm is not a “death penalty”, says Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador.
He said individuals who were compounded for flouting the standard operating procedure of the Covid-19 movement control order could directly appeal to the Health Ministry for a reduction.
“It is not a ‘death penalty’ (based on the prescribed amount, they still can appeal), I have repeatedly stated that they can appeal, ” he told a press conference at Bukit Aman after handing over appreciation letters to reject corruption yesterday.
Abdul Hamid said in the two cases, the sellers alleged that they were compounded by the police even after they had closed their stalls.
