Putrajaya district police chief ACP Mohd Fadzil Ali said the men were found going about their day in Presint Diplomatik and Ayer 8 and compounded for flouting the mandatory home quarantine order.
"A compound was also issued yesterday (Jan 16) to the organiser of a drive-thru programme distributing free frozen chicken in Putrajaya for hosting a programme involving large public attendance," he told Bernama today.
On Friday, photos showing vehicles lining up in Presint 9 to get free frozen chicken distributed by Putrajaya Umno Youth went viral on social media.
He said an investigation revealed that the organiser did not get police approval to conduct the programme which also caused traffic congestion and made it difficult to implement physical distancing.
Mohd Fadzil urged the Putrajaya community to postpone all activities involving large gatherings.
Two other compounds were issued to a driver for carrying more than capacity and to a wholesale supermarket worker for failing to register entry using the MySejahtera application, he said.
Mohd Fadzil said as of today, Putrajaya police had inspected 2,541 individuals, 2,230 vehicles and 833 premises.
He reminded all parties to continue following the SOP. – Bernama
