Police Arrests 250 in Kagadi Guest House.

Lilian Ruteraho, the Kagadi Resident District Commissioner-RDC has ordered police to immediately close Devine Guest House Situated in Kagadi town for hosting holding an illegal Birthday party that attracted more than 250 people, contrary to the COVID-19 guidelines put in place by the government.
Police on Saturday rounded up the 250 suspects in the guesthouse who had gathered to attend an illegal birthday party. The suspects included both adults and juveniles.  
The suspects were attending a birthday party organized by Joachim Ategeka in contravention of the ban on social gathering as part of the COVID-19 containment measures. Some of them were found drinking alcohol.
The suspects who were arrested at around 11p.m were immediately whisked to Kagadi central police station where they are being detained on charges of negligent act that is likely to spread an infectious disease.
But the police wants to release them with a caution because they are too many to be safely kept in the cells.
Now the Kagadi RDC wants the guesthouse immediately closed and the management apprehended.  
She says though Guesthouses have been allowed to operate, they have not been allowed to hold parties and therefore calls for stringent action to be taken against the management.
