Police collects RM598,970 in summons at Raya discount event

KUALA LUMPUR: A total of RM598,970 in summons collections was successfully recorded during the discount initiative held at the police Hari Raya celebration at Titiwangsa Stadium last Monday.
Bukit Aman Traffic Enforcement and Investigation Department director Datuk Seri Mohd Yusri Hassan Basri said 950 individuals settled 5,362 summonses during the event.
"We also welcome Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution's proposal to expand the use of MyDigital ID in traffic summons payments," he said when contacted by Harian Metro today.
Previously, it was reported that police supported the government's suggestion for MyDigital ID integration for summons payments.
Saifuddin said although usage of the application is not compulsory, it aligns with national digitalisation policy and is encouraged.
He added that the government has agreed to amend the National Registration Act 1959 to facilitate the broader adoption of MyDigital ID.

Quick-thinking boy rescues siblings from house fire

Compiled by RAHIMY RAHIM and R. ARAVINTHAN A SEVEN-year-old boy has been hailed a hero for his quick-thinking action in saving his two siblings trapped inside their burning house in Taman Seri Kota, Alor Setar, reported Harian Metro. In the incident on Sunday morning, Muhammad Danial Fitri ran to a neighbour's house to seek help after his two siblings, Puteri Khaira Irdina, 4 and Muhammad Hakim Zikri, 3, were trapped upstairs. Their father Mohd Nazmi Mohd Hanifa, 30, said the children were alone at home at the time as he was out working at a mechanic shop while his wife, Siti Norziana Yusof, 23, went to a clinic. 'Danial was sleeping upstairs while his two other siblings were in the other room. 'He was awakened by the strong smell of smoke and, upon seeing flames engulfing the lower floor, quickly ran to a neighbour's house to get help. 'They then quickly contacted the Fire and Rescue Department,' Mohd Nazmi said. He said that his family had rented the place for almost 11 years. He also did part-time mechanic work at the house. 'When I got home, I was relieved to hear that my children were safe, but devastated to hear that our Proton Wira and eight of my customers' motorcycles had been destroyed,' he added.
