TAWAU: A chicken slaughtering centre at Kampung Saddani, Mile 2, Apas Road here was ordered to close immediately for failing to comply with regulations.

Tawau Municipal Council (TMC) enforcement head Azinun Sanarul yesterday said the centre operator had failed to show the business licence and maintain the cleanliness of the area.

Azinun said the centre had also failed to comply with the stated guidelines and regulations imposed by the Sabah Islamic Affairs Department (JHEAINS).

“We will continue to monitor this chicken slaughtering center for one week and ensure that they comply with all the stated guidelines,” he pointed out.

More than 10 officers from TMC, JHEAINS and Health Department took part in the operation yesterday.

In a separate case, five entertainment premises at Fajar here were compounded between RM50 and RM100 each yesterday for throwing empty liquor bottles at the sidewalk areas of their premises.
