Austrian prosecutors have said that they would not charge anyone criminally over last year's coronavirus outbreak at a popular Alpine ski resort where thousands of international tourists were infected, AFP reports.
Some of the holidaymakers caught the virus during hasty evacuations days after the first case in a crammed tourist bar.
“The investigations into the spread of corona in Ischgl in spring 2020 have been discontinued. There is no charge. There is no evidence that anyone culpably did anything or failed to do anything to increase the risk of contagion. ” the Innsbruck prosecutor's office said in a statement.
