Central West Region Police Headquarters Inspector Alfred Chimthere Public Relations Officer said tension arose after Ntcheu District Council officials allegedly confiscated unregistered motorbikes from some Kabaza motorcycle operators in the area.<\/p>\n

The operators decided to block the M1-road in retaliation.

Chimthere said the situation has returned to normal after both the Kabaza operators and District Council officials reached a consensus.<\/p>\n
