COVID: Woman in Australia jailed for six months over quarantine breach:
Asher Faye Vander Sanden, 28, had spent a month in the state of Victoria, which has been hit heavily by COVID-19. She was permitted to fly home to Perth, Western Australia, and quarantine in a hotel for 14 days at her own expense. But she instead arrived secretly in the state in a truck and stayed at her partner's home, where she was later arrested.
In Western Australia, people found to have broken quarantine laws face a maximum penalty of 12 months' imprisonment or a $50,000 (£27,000) fine.
