In his statement to the journalists, Tunisian Interior Minister Hisham al-Meshi said that people who carry the corona virus can be prosecuted for “killing people” if they act without complying with the quarantine instructions of the Ministry of Health.
“If a sick person does not quarantine himself in accordance with the Ministry of Health’s instructions and infects another person, we will follow them according to the penal code. If this cross-contamination results in death, they can be tried for killing a man. ”
“We will be strict in enforcing the law, and our responsibility is to protect the public,” said Al-Meshi.
It was also reported that hundreds of people were arrested across the country for violating the curfew.
