NCD police to launch festive operations today

The NCD police command is anticipated to launch its festive operations today.

There will be a parade for all personnel to officiate the start of operations.

NCD Central police commander, Donald Yamasombi says that the operations will focus on having pop-up road checks, as well as normal random hot spot checks by personnel.

For the nation’s capital there will be no liquor ban in place, however, the Commander warns that Police drunken patrols will be actively carrying out random checks in and around the city.

He is warning residents to celebrate responsibly and not take for granted the fact that there will be no liquor ban in place.

Meantime, for the Central province, the festive operations are one week into full swing now.

PPC Laimo Asi has so far reported good work by personnel, he says that most community leaders are working well alongside their police counterparts.

For the Central province, there will be a restriction on liquor trading hours. PPC Asi says that licensed liquor outlets will be allowed to operate within selected trading hours. Most likely this will be between 10am to 10pm.
