Kochi (Kerala) [India], Mar 16 : A case has been registered against 75 unknown persons and 4 others who gathered at the Cochin International airport on Sunday night for welcoming a reality show contestant.
The charges were invoked for violating the ban on gathering issued by the airport authority in the backdrop of coronavirus pandemic.
"Case is registered against four known persons and 75 unknown people," said Ernakulam district collector S. Suhas in a Facebook post.
Earlier, Cochin International Airport Limited (CIAL) had banned gatherings at both terminals of the airport but hundreds of people gathered last night, around 9 pm to welcome Rajith, the reality show contestant.
They also raised slogans.
