Over the last two days, Rapid KL authorities have caught 81 commuters misusing MyRapid concession cards offering discount on fares meant for students, the elderly and people with disabilities.
Those identified had the cards they were using confiscated.
The 81 concession cards comprised 48 cards meant for students, 31 for the elderly and two for people with disabilities.
According to Rapid Rail Sdn Bhd chief executive officer Datuk Zohari Sulaiman, they discovered that family members of students who owned MyRapid concession cards were making use of these cards.
“The concession cards were misused by some family members to travel to and from their workplaces,” said Zohari in a statement today.
He added that Rapid Rail found similar stories among those who misused the concession cards for the elderly.
