MEDAN - The North Sumatra Police distributed 5,000 brochures calling for compliance with the Emergency Community Activity Restriction (PPKM) in Medan City by helicopter.

"The brochures were distributed as an effort to provide understanding to the public to comply with the Emergency PPKM rules that were implemented in the city of Medan, North Sumatra", said the Head of Public Relations of the North Sumatra Police, Kombes Hadi Wahyudi, in Medan, quoted by Antara, Friday, July 16.

In addition, he said, the officers also conveyed an appeal from the helicopter through loudspeakers so that the community, for now, obeyed the Emergency PPKM.

Hadi hopes that the public can understand and at the same time comply with the Emergency PPKM rules in Medan City until July 20, 2021.

Previously, dozens of business actors were given strict sanctions for violating the regulations for the Implementation of Emergency Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM) in Medan City, North Sumatra.

The sanctions given are in the form of a written warning to being imposed with varying values because they are proven to have violated the Emergency PPKM in Medan City, where the fine goes to the regional treasury

The firm sanction was given after the business actor, in Medan, Thursday, July 15, underwent a trial at the venue held by the Medan District Court together with the Medan District Attorney (Kejari), at the Medan City PKK building, the Ringroad City Walk courtyard, and the Medan Marelan sub-district office.
