No different types of punishment for violating MCO, says Ismail Sabri

THERE is no such thing as different types of punishment for those found violating the Movement Control Order (MCO), said Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

He said the government has always been fair to all and the legal action taken was in line with the charges.

“No one is above the law of our country. The government is fair to all, anyone found violating the law, action will be taken (against them) regardless of their position.

“For example (the issue of fine) involving the Perak exco and the Deputy Health Minister, they were fined for violating the standard operating procedure (SOP) under the MCO directives,” he said in a press conference related to the MCO today. — April 29, 2020, Bernama
