The Interior Ministry took measures to prevent the coronavirus epidemic, especially for those who put the mask under their chin and misuse it by smoking on the streets and streets where citizens are concentrated. In the framework of the additional circular on ‘Coronavirus Measures’ sent to 81 provincial governorates, smoking was banned on all avenues and streets where citizens are especially concentrated. In Çorum, the streets where the busiest in the city were inspected were carried out by police officers and police teams.
Turhan Candan, Deputy Mayor of Çorum Municipality, who attended the inspections on Gazi Street, warned smokers in open areas. Some people, who said they were not aware of the ban, put out their cigarettes at Candan’s warning. Candan warned the young man who was smoking in the park: “Hello boy, do you have 900 lira? Is smoking prohibited in the open area? “he said. Young expressed that he was not aware of the ban.
‘WE MUST COMPLY WITH THE RULES’
In making a statement after the inspections, Vice President Candan said: “Some new restrictions came with the new circular issued by the Interior Ministry. The most important of these is the ban on smoking in open areas. Smoking is a factor that affects the transmission of the coronavirus. We remind our people that smoking is prohibited in areas determined by the Provincial Board of Hygiene in Çorum. We warn those who have no knowledge. “We need to follow the rules correctly to overcome this epidemic,” he said.
