KAPIT (May 29): Kapit police chief DSP Freddy Bian has advised people to stay at home in compliance with the Movement Control Order (MCO) to avoid violating the standard operating procedures (SOP) and risk being compounded.
He told The Borneo Post that the Kapit police were all out to enforce the MCO to ensure people complied with the rule and regulation.
He warned those breaking the rules and regulations would be compounded to deter them from repeating the same offences, stressing that the police have to be very firm to ensure people would follow and comply with the SOP.
“Being the leading law enforcer, we have to be very strict. Those who violate the MCO SOP would be slapped with compound, especially the repeat offender.
“The police advise people to stay at home. Children below twelve years old and senior citizen are not allowed to visit town because they were the high risk group. I seek the cooperation from the people just stay at home during this two weeks.
“Right now, it is most important to protect yourself and your family member, and keep the Covid-19 pandemic at bay. Everyone must comply with the rules to flatten the Covid-19 infection curve”, said Freddy when contacted.
