PUTRAJAYA, May 19 — The police and military will carry out patrols in residential areas during the upcoming festivals to ensure compliance of the standard operating procedures (SOP) for visits under the Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO).
Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said if too many vehicles were seen parked outside a residence during the festivals, the police and military personnel will go in and check to ascertain the number of people inside.
“So, I would like to remind everyone that the police and military have agreed to carry out patrols on the first day of Aidilfitri and other festivals to ensure compliance of the SOP,” he said at the daily press conference here today.
Prior to this, the government announced that visits in conjunction with Aidilfitri, Pesta Kaamatan and Hari Gawai, have been limited to only the first day of the festivals and should involve only up to a maximum of 20 people per day, subject to the size of the residence.
