Metropolitan Police announced on Tuesday that they will be distributing the first twenty fines for COVID-19 lockdown breaches that occurred at British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's official residence, at 10 Downing Street.
"We will today initially begin to refer 20 fixed penalty notices (FPN) to be issued for breaches of Covid-19 regulations. The ACRO Criminal Records Office will then be responsible for issuing the FPNs to the individual following the referrals from the MPS," read the statement.
The police further added that the identities of those involved in receiving penalties should not be "released or confirmed" adding that they will not "confirm the number of referrals from each individual event subject to our investigation as providing a breakdown at this point may lead to identification of the individuals."
