This is not a true reflection of what acceptable democratic tenets stands for.

The trend the CP notes, cannot be allowed to become a new normal.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Commissioner of Police has set up a special monitoring Team, saddled with the responsibilities of identifying, arresting and prosecuting those behind these undemocratic acts.

The CP has however assured all Political Parties and Stakeholders of a level playing ground and has warned those involved in these acts of political sabotage to desist forthwith.
