This is a contagious disease. Don’t take this order lightly, please stay at home.”
This was the advice of Datuk Norsharidah Awang, the Shah Alam High Court Judicial Commissioner, to 17 offenders who flouted the ongoing movement control order imposed by the government from March 18, to contain Covid-19. Norsharidah said this in her ruling today on the applications made by the 17 individuals for a revision of the 14-day jail sentence they had previously received at the Kajang Magistrates Court for gathering in a condominium unit at Kondominium Amerin in Taming Jaya, Kajang on April 3 at 12.35am.She said that if the courts did not impose a heavy sentence, members of the public would continue to flout the MCO and not pay heed to the government’s instructions to stay at home.
