4 people arrested in Dubai for violating health guidelines

Four people have been arrested in Dubai for violating the health and safety guidelines set by the government.

According to the Dubai Police, the youngsters organised a gathering in front of a house in Al Barsha.

Officials are reminding the public that large gatherings, celebrations and meetings in public or private places are still prohibited.

Violations will result in a AED 10,000 fine for the organiser of the gathering and a AED 5,000 fine for the attendee.  

This comes after restrictions on movement have eased in the emirate and the country as a whole, with the national disinfection drive running from 10:00 pm until 6:00 am daily.

Earlier, it was carried out on a 24-hour basis in Dubai.

The government has clarified that restrictions may have eased, however, individuals must abide by the health guidelines in the country.
