Union officials said Uber had operated illegally even before the new law was passed.

COPENHAGEN: Four Uber drivers were fined by a Danish court on Monday for operating taxis illegally while working for the ride hailing service before it withdrew from the market in April. 

The four men, one of whom was fined 486,500 Danish crowns (RM333,120), were charged in March for failing to have permits and for violating a law introduced in February that imposed extra rules on taxis operating in Denmark, police said.
