The Rantau Panjang Fire and Rescue Department chief has issued a compound against a contractor for misusing a fire hydrant.

This is in relation to the local MP, Siti Zailah Mohd Yusoff’s move to channel water from a fire hydrant to a tanker and distribute them to her constituents during a shortage as a free water supply.

The Fire and Rescue Department’s corporate management division said the perpetrator has admitted guilt and paid the RM100 fine on May 8, thus settling the matter out-of-court.

It also warned the public not to resort to water from fire hydrants as a solution to deal with water shortages, as this could compromise firefighting operations in the event of a fire.
