A 15-year-old girl was fined 5000 kronor for violating the Bærum coronavirus policy, but refused to accept the fine. She was acquitted in the district court.
The girl was fined after police inspected a house in Bærum on the evening of March 5, 2021, following complaints about noise from neighbors, Budstikka writes.
When the police arrived at the scene, there were more than 20 young people, aged 15 to 16, in the house. Participation in private meetings with more than ten people in Bærum was then forbidden. All young people were reported and each was fined NOK 5000.
The girl explained in the district court Ringerike, Asker and Bærum that she and three other people were going to a movie night with a friend who lived in the house and that a group of young people had come there without being invited.
The district court took into account the girl's explanations and emphasized, inter alia, her young age and the short time it all happened.
