Kiwi facing intense lockdown conditions in French Guiana

From Sunday Morning, 10:33 am on 5 April 2020

Things have intensified significantly in French Guiana since we spoke to Nicholas Holmes a fortnight ago. Holmes, who travelled to the French region to pick up his daughter for a holiday back in New Zealand, has seen the local lockdown extended another four weeks and a curfew put in place from 9pm until 5am. Those who break the curfew risk a €3750 fine or six months' jail.
