KUALA LUMPUR, March 11 -- A pharmacy in Selayang near here has been compounded a total of RM20,000 for selling face masks above the controlled price.
The chief enforcement officer of the Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry (KPDNHEP) branch office in Gombak, Azli Aripin said the pharmacy was inspected at 6.30 pm today following complaints from the public.
He added that it was given 14 days to pay the compound fine.

He said about 45 units of face masks, valued at RM45, were seized.
