It was the public who informed police that a person who had been diagnosed with coronary heart disease had passed by a grocery store in Tromsø on two occasions on Friday.
The man was told he was infected Thursday.
According to the police, the person in question did not comply with isolation and quarantine regulations after being diagnosed with corona infection.
The fine is an important signal to give, says lawyer on duty in the Troms police district, Ronny Jørgensen.
– A fine of 30,000 crowns will have both an individual and general preventive effect, says Jørgensen.
The man has not yet ruled on the fine.
This is not the first “crown robot” in Tromsø. In March, a man was fined 15,000 crowns after an incident in which he blew himself up in the face of a security guard and told him “now you have the crown.”
Expensive to break the Infection Control Act
There have been several examples of people who have violated the Infection Control Act.
An Oslo man was fined 20,000 crowns when he visited the family, even though he was subject to a 14-day quarantine obligation after returning from Thailand in May. He risked 30 days in prison if the fine was not paid.
In March, a man from around Kongsvinger went to a party after a stay abroad. It cost him 20,000 crowns.
A 22-year-old was sentenced by the Oslo District Court to 18 days of probation and a fine of NOK 10,000 for violating the Infection Control Act several times in April.
Violations of the quarantine and isolation provisions account for nearly half of the Oslo police corona cases, Aftenposten writes.
The fine for this has been between 5,000 and 22,000 crowns. Several other cases concern threats of infection.
