KOTA KINABALU: Security forces extended the dusk-to-dawn curfew in waters off Sabah's east coast for another two weeks from Thursday (Sept 13) to Sept 28.

Sabah Police Commissioner Datuk Omar Mammah said that the curfew extension was necessary due to the continuing threat of kidnap-for-ransom groups and other criminals from neighbouring Philippines.
