The police are only arresting the ones brought to custody for serious crimes such as drug offences, homebrew, murder and firearms.
Currently, the offenders are being held in a temporary room within the Police Administration building that has been converted to cater as a holding cell.
The Sarakolok Police cell which was holding all offenders after the Buluma and Kimbe cells were condemned have also now been forced to close down by the Provincial Health Authority due to health and hygiene reasons and deemed as beyond human occupation.
