Saskatchewan RCMP has charged a group of suspects in a criminal investigation with failing to comply with the province’s Public Health Order that limits public gatherings to 10 people or less.
According to police, these are the first individuals the Saskatchewan RCMP have arrested and charged during the COVID-19 pandemic under the Saskatchewan Public Health Act.
The law, which came into effect March 26, states “participating in a private gathering of more than 10 people without maintaining a two-metre distancing between people.”
