Nineteen arrested for curfew breaches last night

Nineteen arrests were made last night for curfew breaches with the Northern Division recording the highest number with 12 arrests.

Police Commissioner Sitiveni Qiliho says the Western Division recorded five cases while there were two arrests in the Southern Division.

There were no arrests in the Eastern and Central Divisions.

Qiliho says it is commendable that there were no reports of social gatherings in the last 24 hours but hopes that the high number of arrests made in relation to sporting activities last week will not be repeated this week.

He says they reiterate the Prime Minister's reminder that everyone should act as if COVID- 19 is around.
