The new Tasion Barracks at Rainbow has finally been completed.
The opening of this barracks was set for today, however has been delayed to next Monday.
NCD Metropolitan Superintendent, Benjamin Turi said the deferral was because of some minor issues where his men were falsely accused of breaking into some of those houses to occupy them.
“Some officers called up the police headquarters telling them that some of my officers had broken into these homes and this is not true,” says Turi.
Turi said because of this false information, neither the Police Commissioner nor the NCD Governor turned up to the location for the opening today.
Meanwhile, wives of officers who are to move into the new houses say they are very happy that they can finally move into the new barracks and away from the road construction which has caused a lot of health hazard for their children.
The construction of the new four lane road from Gerehu to Nine mile will continue after the families have resettled into their new homes in the barracks.
