A marine police officer who spread Corona 19 after visiting an entertainment establishment with an aggregate gathering company official was placed on standby.



The Incheon Maritime Police Department announced today (24th) that a marine police officer A (49, male) belonging to a certain security ship was on standby to be dispatched to the Police Department.



Mr. A was tested for a corona19 specimen on the 20th and tested positive, but he hid the fact of visiting an entertainment establishment during the initial epidemiological investigation.



As a result of an in-depth epidemiological investigation, it was confirmed that he visited an entertainment business in Yeonsu-gu, Incheon on the 13th of this month with 57-year-old Mr. B, an aggregate harvester.



Mr. B was also confirmed on the 21st, but he did not say that he visited an entertainment establishment.



In this entertainment establishment, 27 people, including Mr. A, including employees and guests, have been confirmed.



Incheon City's Yeonsu-gu is reviewing a plan to accuse Mr. A to the police for violating the Infectious Disease Prevention and Management Act.



A maritime affairs official said, "If Mr. A's quarantine is lifted, we will investigate whether there is any violation of the Solicitation Prohibition Act or the Infectious Disease Prevention Act and take strict measures."
