Elton John has been accused of flouting face mask rules during a visit to the Italian island of Capri this week, after photos emerged of the singer not wearing a mask in a hotel.
Codacons, Italy’s leading consumers’ association, filed a complaint to local and regional authorities, saying John should be fined. The Campania region, of which Capri is part, last week made it obligatory for face coverings to be worn outside as it attempted to stem a rise in coronavirus infections.
