Police in Lugazi have arrested 71 people who were found drinking beer in bars, a violation of the Ministry of Health guidelines on the prevention of the spread of the Covid-19.

Police carried out the operation after a tip off from the local village leaderships in the communities in Lugazi Municipality that small bars and lodges with bars are operating, ushering in people who received or are yet to get the relief money.

Also arrested during the operation are owners and managers as they have been illegally operating behind closed doors.
