Bahrain: Sigh Of Relief As Restaurant Supervisor Acquitted Of Health Violation Claims

A restaurant supervisor has been acquitted of violating health regulations after a court found that he was not responsible for ensuring the restaurant met the required standards.

The supervisor, who was not named in the court documents, was accused of violating health regulations after a health inspector found several violations at the restaurant.

The supervisor had promised the inspector that he would remove the violations, but he was surprised to be charged with the offence despite not being the owner or manager of the restaurant.

The court agreed with the lawyer’s argument, noting that the supervisor was only responsible for the employees and their organisation.

The court found that the observed violations were the responsibility of the owner or the person authorised by the owner to manage the restaurant and ensure it met all health and legal requirements.
