Mohd Khairuddin Aman Razali paid a compound fine, but Puad Zarkashi said he should be charged in court.
Puad Zarkashi, an Umno Supreme Council member, said Khairuddin’s willingness to donate four months salary to the Covid-19 disaster relief fund showed he knew the seriousness of his offence. “There are two big issues here. First, the breaking of the 14-day quarantine rule for those who return from overseas, and second, the compound amount which seems be applied at whims and fancies,” he said.
He said the government should not use the ministry for cover. “Khairuddin should be charged in court,” he said.
