35 persons were each fined €100 during police inspections to ensure that no gatherings of more than 3 persons take place.

Groups of four people or more will be fined as per a Legal Notice issued last week.

On the other hand, for the fourth day in a row, no one was caught breaching obligatory quarantine during the 502 inspections that were conducted in the last 24 hours.

The appeal remains for everyone to be responsible and co-operate with the directives that are being rolled out by the authorities.

An establishment in Bormla was caught serving beverages to various clients during one of the insepctions that are being conducted by Malta Tourism Authority officials.

The establishment owner was fined €3,000 for breaking regulations to keep doors shut as part of the measures to control the spread of Covid-19.

In all, in the last 24 hours, 370 inspections have been carried out, for a total that has surpassed 16,000. Abuses are to be reported on 21692447.
