Africa-Press<\/a> – Kenya<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Six police officers are cooling their heels behind bars after they were nabbed partying in Kisumu past curfew hours.<\/p>\n

A report by NTV on Sunday, June 20, indicated that the battalion was arrested in Nyamasaria area within Kisumu at 8 p.m. on Saturday, June 19.<\/p>\n

Kisumu County Commander Samuel Anampiu confirmed the incident noting that the officers were nabbed partying with six civilians.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, June 17, the government reviewed curfew to 7 p.m. and 4 a.m. in 13 Counties in a bid to curb the spread of Covid-19.<\/p>\n

Kisumu was among the counties that had recorded a spike in Covid-19 virus especially the lethal Indian variant.<\/p>\n

The other counties included Busia, Vihiga, Kisii, Nyamira, Kakamega, Kericho, Bomet, Bungoma, Trans-Nzoia, Siaya, Homa-Bay and Migori.<\/p>\n

A statement signed by Health CS Mutahi Kagwe indicated that the counties had been declared as a Covid-19 hotspot zone both individually and collectively.<\/p>\n

In the counties, weekly non-food and livestock markets were suspended for 30 days while public gatherings and in-person meetings of whatever nature were prohibited.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
