Larnaca district court on Wednesday fined a woman €800 after finding her guilty of breaking rules to prevent the spread of coronavirus, the Cyprus News Agency reports.
The 47-year old woman, who had come to Cyprus from the USA in July, had failed to self-isolate for two weeks as required by health ministry decrees but had instead participated in a number social gatherings, infecting others with the coronavirus, the news agency said.
She was found guilty after facing a charge regarding measures introduced to contain the coronavirus outbreak and paid the fine the same day.
The court took as mitigating factor the fact that the woman was not familiar with the quarantine law because she had been abroad
