MELAKA: An individual was issued a RM4,000 fine for violating the standard operating procedures (SOP) of the Melaka state election and not for wearing a shirt with a party logo, said Melaka police chief Datuk Abdul Majid Mohd Ali.
He said the man was taking part in a walkabout which is banned during the campaigning period for the state election.
"The compound was imposed not because the man was wearing a shirt with a party logo but because of the walkabout programme," he told reporters here today.
Abdul Majid said the compound was issued under the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Act 1988.
