Good Samaritans to be better protected

People injured while helping others would have their medical fees paid for

Good Samaritans who are injured while helping someone in need are to be better protected, the top police and security authority announced on Saturday.

The Ministry of Public Security issued a draft guideline on how to protect and reward good Samaritans, stipulating that medical fees should be paid for by the person responsible for an accident or by those being helped.
