Two Chinese businesswomen have been freed of charges for opening their supermarket during a curfew for the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021 due to delays in prosecuting their case.
Magistrate Debra Quintyne dismissed the charges against Shumin Zhou and Xaio Zheng as police prosecutors were not prepared to start their case, which was set for trial yesterday.
The duo was charged under Public Health Regulations for the COVID-19 pandemic after police allegedly found Happiness Supermarket in Barataria open on June 3, 2021.
