Police said they noted that unregistered vehicles were being used to commit crimes such as armed robbery, murder, kidnapping and smuggling. Police said in a statement:

> It has also been observed that the mushikashika vehicles and kombis that are being contracted to ZUPCO were carrying passengers across the district and these have removed number plates to avoid being identified.

> The seven-day operation which was conducted in the district resulted in 55 arrests and 29 vehicles were impounded for infringing the temporary identification card facility.

> The operation led to the confiscation of those vehicles without relevant papers.

Police said some motorists had become so rogue that they were defying police signals to stop at roadblocks and checkpoints.

Others were allegedly so daring that if a police officer stood in their way, they were prepared to knock them down. | The Sunday News
