Washington (USA) – People who intentionally spread coronavirus could face criminal charges under America’s terrorism laws, the US Justice Department’s No. 2 official said on 24^th March.

In a memo to top Justice Department leaders, law enforcement agency chiefs and US Attorneys across the country, Deputy Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen said prosecutors and investigators could come across cases of ‘purposeful exposure and infection of others with COVID-19.’ “Attempts to use it as a weapon against Americans will not be tolerated”, he said.
