Cele Targets Businesses Following Stricter COVID-19 Regulations

By: Thabisile Mathenjwa

Police Minister Bheki Cele has issued a stern warning that businesses that break COVID-19 protocols will pay a R5000 fine.

This is after President Cyril Ramaphosa announced the tightening of regulations, to minimise the spread of the pandemic this festive season.

Businesses will be forced to pay a fine for first offenses, and thereafter will have their licenses confiscated for three months.

Cele says they will have no mercy on businesses which breach these regulations.
