SOME 20 to 30 foreign workers were spotted leaving the Desa Bistari Apartments in Taman Jerejak Indah, Batu Uban, Penang, on Saturday night just after the Government’s announcement that the apartments would be placed under enhanced movement control order (MCO) in targeted locations.

The apartments’ joint management body (JMB) chairman Md Yusri Md Yusoff, 38, said a van and a bus came to pick up the workers from about 11pm on Saturday till around 1.30am yesterday.
