Inter-city travel still banned, warns police

POLICE have warned that under the current Level 4 Covid-19 lockdown, intercity movement is still prohibited with only commercial cargo and essential services allowed to operate.

superintendent Resistant Ncube from the Zimbabwe Republic Police Press and Public Relations unit said only buses transporting children to school were allowed to operate intercity travel as announced by government.

"Bus operators who take advantage of the government's reprieve only to abuse it by transporting ordinary passengers and not school children will risk being arrested and their buses impounded," Ncube said.

"The Zimbabwe Republic Police will be in full force monitoring transport operators who would want to take advantage of the pronouncement to carry and cash on other passengers during this school operating period."
