The Kelantan Islamic Religious Affairs Department (Jaheik) has issued warnings against seven men for failing to observe Islamic modesty rules by wearing shorts that exposed their thighs.

Jaheik enforcement division deputy director Mohd Fadzuli Mohd Zain said the men were found during a joint operation with the Tanah Merah District Council (MDTM), the Tanah Merah District Health Office, and the National Anti-Drug Agency (AADK) last Friday.
