BICYCLE-sharing platform company oBike (M) Sdn Bhd has been fined RM17,000 by Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) for being an obstruction in public places.

The company will also have to amend the concept of its business module by having special stations to park the bikes if it wishes to continue operating after paying the fine, which was issued following the seizure of 261 yellow bicycles that were parked around the SS2 area last week.
