KUALA LUMPUR: Some workers have been caught abusing employer-issued letters to move on weekends during the conditional movement control order (MCO), which went into effect Oct. 14.
Sentul OCPD Asst Comm S. Shanmugamoorthy said that in such situations, the police would immediately contact their respective employers to take follow-up action.
He noted that there were service sectors that only operated on normal days, but some employees were found to be taking advantage of the situation by using the consent letters to bypass roadblocks on weekends for personal purposes and for no logical reason.
” There were also some workers who made copies of the letters for their colleagues but it is impossible that they are all working at the same time on non-working days.
“In addition, there will also be a more careful and frequent inspection in the service sector such as courier services,” he told reporters after monitoring conditional MCO compliance at various roadblocks in Sentul district yesterday. .
Shanmugamoorthy said that police also detected several people who gave the excuse that they wanted to deliver packages or items by providing the related documents, but subsequent inspections showed that they were actually moving empty-handed.
So if prior to this, compounds or warnings were only given to those who disobeyed the conditional MCO, this time the same actions will be taken against their employers.
“I urge the public not to take advantage of trying to mislead law enforcement authorities for personal purposes,” he said. – Bernama
