KUALA LUMPUR: Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) ordered the immediate closure and compounding of a premises in Jalan Bukit Bintang, here following a video of a semi-nude dancing in front of the premises which went viral on social media last week.
DBKL through a post on its official Facebook informed the Enforcement Department on 23 August that it had carried out a special action at the premises in question and found that it had a retail store composite license (dry goods only) to carry out supermarket activities.
However, according to DBKL, the premises involved were operated by four foreign workers who did not have valid work permits, two Bangladeshis and one Iranian each.
"Therefore, DBKL has issued one compound notice for employing foreign workers without a valid work permit and one compound notice for carrying out activities other than those licensed.
The premises were also ordered to be closed immediately because they were operated by non-citizens," according to the dispatch.
DBKL also informed that the result of the information provided by employees of the premises stated that the semi-nude dance incident took place on July 5 in conjunction with the anniversary celebrations of the premises involved. – BERNAMA
