It added that “Police special operations are currently underway to arrest others involved in this act which is becoming a trend in some parts of the country.”
The Police therefore cautioned the youth to desist from this act “as it constitutes the offense of offensive conduct conducive to breaches of the peace contrary to section 207 of the Criminal Offences Act, 1960 (Act 29) amongst others.
The Police assured the public that they “will do all that it takes for our beloved country to continue to be at peace with herself.”
