When asked why Kotra was dressed as Spiderman, Deputy Public Prosecutor Jeremy Bin claimed that he did so to draw attention to himself and continued to wear it throughout the evening. He was in violation of Covid-19 requirements by not wearing a face mask underneath it.

"This New Year's party was a blatant smack in the face to the law," said Kotra in the four-minute-and-22-second edited film.

Kotra organised the outing in a deliberate breach, but Bin said that a fine was sufficient because of the nature of the breach and the accused's culpability.
