PARIS: Paris police fined over 100 diners late Friday at an underground restaurant flouting coronavirus restrictions and arrested its organiser, after a week of allegations that ministers attended similar rule-breaking events.
Officers were “called out for an excessive noise complaint about a restaurant” and “put an end to a gathering of over 110 people,” the French capital’s police posted on Twitter. “Guests fined for failling to respect applicable health measures. Organiser and manager arrested,” they added.
Underground restaurants offering wealthy people a pre-coronavirus dining experience have made headlines in France throughout this week.
