COVID-19 | Owners of nightclubs and pubs operating illegally during the recovery movement control order (MCO) are set to face stern action, including being charged in court and having their operating licences revoked.

Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Ismail Sabri Yaakob said entertainment premises were still prohibited from operating during the recovery MCO, and those still open would be in breach of the directive under the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Act 1988 (Act 342).
