The sea curfew covers areas up to three nautical miles off Tawau, Semporna, Kunak, Lahad Datu, Kinabatangan, Sandakan and Beluran. On the curfew, Hazani said in a statement on Wednesday (July 28) that no one is allowed to be out of their homes or enter the curfew areas during the curfew hours. He said this was needed due to continuous threats from cross-border criminals, including from kidnap-for-ransom groups. "There is a need to continue the curfew in these waters to prevent the encroachment of terrorists and criminals who can threaten the safety of people in these areas," said Hazani.
