Police take battle to drinkers in prohibited areas

Police Spokesperson, Assistant Commissioner Christopher Mbulawa said via a press release yesterday that the police would now enforce a harsh regimen to ensure offenders stayed off places not designated as drinking spots.

“We have observed that after people have purchased alcohol from licensed premises, they go to undesignated places such as parking lots, streets, walkways like passages and other places not designated for alcohol consumption where they engage in binge drinking,” he said.
