IPOH: An elderly woman who defied her home quarantine order broke down in tears after she was sentenced to a day in jail and a RM8,000 fine. Nabihah said if Nur Emah failed to pay the fine, she would be sent to jail for six months. She was pictured having a meal while wearing a pink tag on her wrist at an eatery in Meru Raya. Ahmad Fakurazi told the court that a deterrent sentence should be imposed on Nur Emah for defying the order. On July 22, the media reported that the woman with the pink tag had been identified and that she was being treated at Hospital Raja Permaisuri Bainun at the time.
