90 skeptics of the crown illegally gathered in a restaurant: announcements for the organizer and the landlady, buses for the participants
Last weekend, around 90 people, including children and the elderly, gathered in Gommiswald at the Älpli restaurant for a supposedly religious event and a birthday party. There was a bus for the participants, the organizers and the landlady were informed.
Police found numerous people in the restaurant.
(network / more) “I am not aware of such a large event in the pandemic,” says Hanspeter Krüsi, media spokesman for the St. Gallen cantonal police on “FM1Today” about the situation that the cantonal police encountered last Saturday. In Gommiswald, 90 people gathered at the Älpli restaurant.
Police received a tip on Friday. “Then we contacted the landlady and the organizers and let them know that the party is not allowed and that the organizers can be prosecuted,” says Krüsi. However, the organizers stood their ground on their event.
The police found between 40 and 50 people at the scene and more and more came. The organizers were stubborn, as a video from a guest shows. One would not pay for the distributed buses and send them back.
On Saturday a party with 90 people was held in Gommiswald.
The police had to withdraw
The media spokesman for the canton of St. Gallen police, Hanspeter Krüsi, was right there: “It was a difficult situation for us.” It also says:

“It quickly became clear to us that we couldn’t break the party. There were children and pensioners in the restaurant and we didn’t want it to get worse. “
One should have retired. There were a dozen emergency services on site. “If we had to get them out of the restaurant, surely there would have been arguments, unpleasant situations and possibly injuries,” says Krüsi.
Access roads have been searched and people have been questioned by the police, as stated in the “Linth Zeitung”.
“After a long discussion we had to withdraw and the party took place.”
Crown skeptics conferences
In the end, about 90 people were at the illegal party, they came from the area around Gommiswald. “Everything was there, from the child to the grandfather.” Krüsi says: “It is incomprehensible to me how so many people knowingly break the rules of the crown after a year with the virus.”
The occasion was disguised as a religious celebration, followed by a birthday party. As it was later discovered, the skeptics of the crown gave lectures. One speaker denied the existence of the coronavirus. Another showed how one can supposedly defend oneself from the police and buses.
Buses and advertisements
The police recorded the personal details of several participants at the scene and pointed out the buses. In hindsight, other people would identify themselves. The three organizers were reported to the prosecutor. This includes the birthday boy, the two anti-crown speakers, and the landlady.
According to Krüsi, if someone rejects the fine, the following awaits them: if the fine is not paid on time, there will be a proper criminal process, so there will be a report to the prosecution. If the fine is considered justified, a sanction order and another fine follow. In addition, there are the procedural costs.
