GEORGE TOWN, April 15 — A birthday celebration was cut short in a serviced apartment here when the police raided the unit and found 13 youths having a party in direct breach of the movement control order (MCO).

A police team raided the apartment unit, located along Jalan Pangkor, after midnight today and found the youths, all from various parts of the state, drinking and partying.

North-east District Police chief Assistant Commissioner Soffian Santong said one of the suspects had rented the serviced apartment for the night to celebrate his birthday.

“His friends who were in the apartment unit gave the excuse that they were there to drink and have fun,” he said.

The police also seized two bottles of liquor at the premises.

The 13 men, aged between 19 and 26 years old, were immediately arrested and remanded until tomorrow.
