There is no treatment for infected plants, there is only removal and prevention.
Pull or dig out any infected plants and dispose of them away from the garden.
Check your soil for nutrition levels, and add anything that is low. Especially pay attention to levels of sulfur, boron and calcium.
Deal with aphids that spread the disease.

There are quite a number if virus that can cause mosaic symptoms on Chilli plants. Can you provide some images. Also, is the mosaic pattern accompanied by changes in the leaf (such as leaf curling)
Also, do you have lots of plant feeding insects (like Aphids?) on the chilli plants over 10 years ago.
