The Covid Police are Looking …Looking … Looking … By Paul Walker
You better watch out, you better be nice, because Santa Claus is never coming to town any more, Christmas as we knew it is probably to be cancelled, but out there are the ever-watchful Covid police, straight out of a dystopian movie. Say, that gives me an idea for a horror film, Santa Claws, where a Covid-infected Santa goes mad, becomes a serial killer, but the kindly transgendered detective heroes manage to save the day by firing syringes of Covid vax at him in a final show down set in a dark wrecked former Australian manufacturing plant! What is there not to like?
“The furious owner of a major restaurant chain has taken to social media to rant after a plain clothes cop was sent into one of his venues to ensure it was Covid-19 compliant.
Rashays founder Rami Ykmour criticised the actions of officers who entered his diner in Rhodes, Sydney, in a scathing TikTok video on Tuesday.
Mr Ykmour claimed the officers had compromised the mental health of his staff while they checked if his restaurant was following the proper procedures.
CCTV footage of the interaction shows one male and one female officer entering the restaurant, checking in and then showing their vaccination passports.
The man then flashes his police badge to staff who are asked to prove their vaccination status and present the diners Covid-19 safety plan.
'I don't know why it had to be so dramatic, why they had to get in the way of customers and why they had to approach the staff they way they did,' Mr Ykmour said.
Mr Ykmour said his chest tightened the first time he watched the footage, revealing his staff were already under a 'tremendous' amount of pressure ensuring government regulations were maintained.
He said while the interaction played out there were four front-of-house staff working in the restaurant, which was mostly empty.
'You could see the panic in the staff. They can see there's a police officer there, their heart rate is going through the roof,' the restaurant owner claimed.
A NSW Police spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia: 'Police have reviewed the vision and have conducted inquiries'.
'While uniformed NSW Police officers have previously attended the premises, the person depicted on Friday 12 November 2021 is not a NSW Police officer.
'There are various government agencies that carry identification.'”
