PETALING JAYAThose who are in home quarantine due to the Covid-19 pandemic should stay at their facilities, as the police will conduct random checks to ensure they comply with the order.
Selangor Police CID Chief SAC Datuk Fadzil Ahmat said today that the police visit between 200 and 300 of those in quarantine daily in the 16 districts under the jurisdiction of the state police.
“Our CID staff will carry out these inspections with personal protective equipment (PPE). We will call the person’s name and if we find they are missing, we will file a police report and initiate an investigation. Excuses for their absence will not be accepted unless they have left their homes to go to the hospital, ”he said.
He said that under the laws of the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Act, offenders face a jail term of up to two years.
Fadzil said that to date the police have opened 36 investigative documents on those who violated the home quarantine orders.
