Government has noted with concern that some criminals have been attacking and stealing from unsuspecting motorists driving along Chibuluma and Mindolo Roads on the Copperbelt.
Home Affairs Minister, Jack Mwiimbu says criminals are taking advantage of motorists who are forced to move at a very slow speed due to the deplorable state of the roads.
Mr. Mwiimbu has told Parliament in a ministerial on the criminal activities in Nkana Constituency’s Chibuluma Road that so far, six suspects been arrested.
He says to curb these criminal acts, surveillance patrols have been heightened along the stretch and surrounding communities.
Mr. Mwiimbu has called for increased sensitization of communities on maintaining law and order and engagement of communities on the implementation of law and order activities through neighborhood watch groups.
