The minor, when caught, tried to get out of the ‘sticky’ situation by telling health enforcement officers that the cigarettes belonged to his father, Kluang District Health Officer Dr Mohd Nizam Subaher said. He said the action taken was to ensure that minors, especially school children, do not get hooked to smoking and at the same time prevent them from being involved in other bad habits as well.
Dr Mohd Nizam said besides the 12-year-old boy, 33 other people were also compounded in Kluang since January 1 for committing offences under the same regulations.
