KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 21 — The investigation into Plantation Industries and Commodities Minister Khairuddin Aman Razali’s alleged breach of quarantine orders has been classified as no further action (NFA) by the Attorney General's Chambers (AGC), said Bukit Aman CID director Datuk Huzir Mohamed.

In a press conference today, Huzir explained that this was because Khairuddin was not issued a home surveillance order (Form 14b) under the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Act (Act 342).


“In the investigation paper that has been referred to the attorney general, the instructions for this case are ‘NFA’.

“NFA on the grounds and statement that the minister was not issued a Form 14B under Section 15(1) of Act 342 to undergo home quarantine.

“Based on that statement, the Attorney General’s Chambers decided not to take any action against the minister and there is no strong statement for the basis of a charge under Act 342,” he said.

    5. This post is about AGC, puts blame on AGC, 1,200 lawyers there, not specifically at AG Idrus Harun. Point lah the finger at him.

      But before like for fireman death or TBH case, it's all TT's fault, who was appointed by Toonsie. Not the 1,200 lawyers.

  5. What happen to SOP? Now MOE not following its own SOP. The MOE officer responsible is negligent in his duty. This is dangerous on health matters. Is this an isolated case or special treatment. Is ignorance of the law by the minester, an excuse for NFA. Why was he fined RM1K, what did he do wrong? More question than answers.

    Why was Khairuddin fined if he did not break any rules, asks MCA
    FMT Reporters -October 21, 2020

    PETALING JAYA: MCA spokesman and Central Committee member Chan Quin Er has questioned the decision by the authorities to classify as “No Further Action (NFA)” an investigation into PAS minister Khairuddin Aman Razali, who had allegedly failed to undergo mandatory home quarantine after returning from Turkey.

    She said it was reported earlier that Khairuddin had been fined the maximum amount of RM1,000 for not observing the home quarantine and for failing to abide by the rules under Act 342 (the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Act 1988).

    “What rules did he break? Why was he issued a compound fine if he did not break any of the rules?” she asked in a statement this evening.

    Chan said previous announcements in multiple government circulars had said all individuals entering Malaysia from abroad are considered to be Persons Under Surveillance (PUS) and must be subjected to a mandatory 14-day quarantine, unless they were given an exemption.

    “You do not become a PUS only upon being given a copy of Form 14B. You are automatically one if you enter or re-enter Malaysia from abroad.”

    She said if Khairuddin was given any exemption from compulsory quarantine, then the authorities must explain the matter in detail.

    “Otherwise, this sets a dangerous precedent.

    “Any PUS that the authorities forget to issue Form 14B to can breach quarantine rules without facing any consequences,” she said, referring to a form issued by the health ministry to those ordered to go under home quarantine upon returning to Malaysia.

    Earlier today, police had said no further action would be taken against the plantation industries and commodities minister over his breach of the quarantine order after returning from overseas on July 7.

    Bukit Aman CID chief Huzir Mohamed said the decision was made as the minister had not been issued the form, which is necessary to undergo quarantine, upon returning to the country.

    Chan said an appeal can still be made on the decision to NFA the case to the Attorney-General’s Chambers.

    “We cannot jail the common man for breaching quarantine rules when a minister can get off due to a ‘technical error’.

    “There can be no double standards as we are all equal before the law.”
