KUALA LUMPUR: Police will call Selangor Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari to Bukit Aman soon to give a statement on the claim that he violates the self-quarantine order to curb the spread of Covid-19.
Bukit Aman Deputy Director of Criminal Investigation Department (CID) (investigation / legal) DCP Mior Faridalathrash Wahid said the investigation is ongoing following a statement on Amirudin’s Twitter account apologizing for the matter, saying that he did to verify the interruption of the water in Selangor.
“He has been called to give a statement shortly to help with the investigation and several witnesses will also be called,” he said when contacted by Bernama today.
The case is being investigated under Section 15 and Section 22 (B) of the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases 1988 for failing to comply with a valid directive issued by any authorized official.
Earlier this month, it was reported that Police Deputy Inspector General Datuk Seri Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani said that the police were investigating a case involving Amiruddin for his apology via social media for breaking the home quarantine.
On October 4, Amirudin through his Twitter account apologized for having to come out of quarantine to solve the problem of contamination of the river that caused two Water Treatment Plants (LRA); Sungai Semenyih and Bukit Tampoi, to stop the operation.
From the same post, Amirudin said that he too took the necessary steps, including wearing a mask, and that the screening test, which he did twice, found him negative for Covid-19.
He visited the Sungai Semenyih LRA to inspect the pollution situation with the Minister of the Environment and Water, Datuk Seri Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man.
Amirudin was ordered to undergo home quarantine by the Ministry of Health upon his return from Sabah’s state elections last September. -Called
