The Ministry of Interior has referred one person to the Public Prosecution for violating the pledge undertaken for holding a social event (marriage) by exceeding the number of allowed persons to participate in it.

"The competent authorities call on the public to adhere to the precautionary and preventive decisions in force to protect them and others from the spread of the Coronavirus in society," the statement added

MoI and health authorities have been continuously warning the public to follow precautionary measures like wearing masks, following social distancing, and restricting the number of people in vehicles to fight the Covid-19 pandemic from spreading.

Ministry had earlier announced that to hold events residents and citizens can submit the request through Metrash2 and approval for the same will be sent to the registered email.
