Fifteen women who participated in a Zumba fitness exercise at a premise in Taman Pekan Baru, Sungai Petani, were fined RM1,000 each for defying the conditional movement control order (MCO).

Kuala Muda district police chief Adzli Abu Shah said they were caught doing so by a police team during a conditional MCO patrol in the area at 6.30pm last Friday.

All the women, aged between 25 and 50, could not provide valid reasons for gathering at the premises, he said in a statement today.
