Kampala: Police in Kira Road last night carried out a joint operation on enforcing Ministry of Health guidelines in Ntinda and Kiwatule after receiving several complaints from residents that some crowds gather in a certain apartment located in Balintuma village near Firidina Road to drink alcohol without observing MoH COVID-19 guidelines despite virus’ rapid transmission.

The Kampala Metropolitan Police spokesperson Patrick Onyango said the crowds could not only drink alcohol but also loudly played music hence causing noise pollution in the area that disrupted the peace of wanainchi (ordinary people) and also defied the Presidential directives.
