A teen was fined RM5,000 by the police for removing her pink quarantine wristband and going out for a ride on a motorcycle. 

The incident, according to the police, happened in Kamunting, Perak. 

Taiping district police chief ACP Osman Mamat said the compound was issued under Regulation 17 of the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Regulations 2021 (Act 342).

The 17-year-old was caught thanks to a TikTok video that went viral on social media. 

The video shows the teen, all dressed up and wearing a helmet. Her sibling, who was recording her, warned the teen not to go out while in quarantine.

However, the teen then took her quarantine wristband out of her handbag and made a joke, as her sibling continued to warn her not to go out while also showing that her own wristband was still on.
