Police said in the statement: > The ZRP confirms that on 04/02/21, 3 560 people were arrested for COVID-19 related contraventions, 894 were arrested for ‘failure to wear masks’ and 2 095 were arrested for ‘unnecessary movements’. > Since the onset of the national lockdown on 30/03/2020, a cumulative total of 393 504 people have been arrested for violating national lockdown measures. Most of those arrested were in violation of movement restrictions. > Members of the public are urged to comply with the measures put in place by Government to contain the spread of COVID-19 pandemic. By October last year, the government had reopened most sectors of the economy as coronavirus infection rates had fallen to manageable levels. However, on 5 January 2021, the government reimposed strict lockdown measures for a month in a bid to contain unprecedented COVID-19 infections which were threatening to spiral out of control. The 30-day national lockdown was subsequently extended by another 10 days to 15 February 2021. _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
