He said this while explaining why operatives of the Command fired tear gas canisters to disperse those at the tollgate.


According to him, “The activists had informed us that their activity will start by 8am and last till 10am.


“They had an agreement with us that they will be having a car procession, which they are done with and have left.


“They told us that they finished their activity around 10am, adding that whoever was found still hanging around is not part of them.


“Those you can see around now are hoodlums who want to steal and cause destruction.
