TRACKING___The Rivers State Police has arrested and prosecuted over 100 residents of the state for violating a lockdown order issued by the state government.
Residents of the state who were arrested by the police in different parts of Port Harcourt between Monday and Thursday were charged with three-count of conspiracy, disobedient to Governors’ directive, and street trading which caused a breach of public peace.
They were arraigned in courts. Those who pleaded guilty were fined N10,000 while those who pleaded not guilty were granted bail of N100,000 with two sureties who must be verified by the prosecutors. Their cases were adjourned to 6th of April for hearing.
The state government was however accused of not practicising the social distancing it has been canvassing for, as over 100 persons were reportedly placed in one cell unit.
