I am not so sure, but then I am not a lawyer.

The way a curfew should work is an curfew is issued. Those who obey it are not punished or inconvenienced because a curfew ordinarily does not prevent one from emergency movement. Such as required medical attention, prescription drugs, escape from burning buildings, etc.

But those who are out with no pressing reason to be out are punished as required.

There is a difference between curfew and imprisonment and they were imprisoned.
