On why they intercepted the group, Police says they refused to comply and instead mobilized their supporters who came in big numbers and entered the medical facility, contrary to the Ministry of Health guidelines on #COVID19.

“This necessitated the use of non lethal crowd dispersal methods including tear gas to disperse the crowds,” says Police.
