SIBU (July 24): Six individuals were slapped with a RM1,500 compound each for violating the standard operating procedures (SOP) of Phase 2 of the National Recovery Plan (NRP).
An integrated SOP monitoring team consisting of the police, Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs, Rela, Armed Forces, Road Transport Department and Health Department led by ASP Kushairy Bujang came across six individuals gathering at Jalan Khoo Peng Loong about noon yesterday.

They have to pay the summonses at Sibu District health office within 14 days from the date the compound was issued.
