The 60-year-old woman who breached mandatory self-quarantine measures after returning from the US has been fined $500 by the Suva Magistrates Court.

Susana Burenivalu pleaded guilty to one count of failure to comply with an order under the Public Health Act.

Burenivalu turned up to the Registrar of Marriages Office in Suva last month requesting to urgently get married.

It was then discovered that she returned from the USA on 23rd March as per her travel itinerary and was supposed to be under self-isolation.

The woman was arrested after completing self-quarantine.
