Petaling Jaya, 26th November 2024 - Commercial Crime Investigation Department Director, CP Dato' Sri Ramli Mohamed Yoosuf has warned the public against filing false reports "claiming their MyKad was stolen" to avoid incurring penalties from the National Registration Department (NRD).
Calling such action unethical and highly irresponsible, he said: "Such actions are criminal offences, and I warn the public to avoid doing this to escape penalties from the NRD.
"Those found guilty of filing false reports can be imprisoned for a maximum of six months or be fined a maximum of RM2,000," he said.
In 2023, the NRD said it recorded some 8,000 cases of lost identity cards annually for the preceding five years.
According to the penalties set by the NRD, first-time applicants who wish to replace their lost or stolen MyKad will be charged RM 100.
A second replacement will incur a penalty of RM 300, while subsequent replacements will result in a penalty of RMl,000.
