Police have warned members of the public and university students against hosting parties late at night in violation of the curfew order and also engaging in orgies of violence.
This follows the arrest of a 30-year-old university student, Michael Muza after he hosted a party for his fellow university students in Bulawayo.
Muza was arrested on Saturday for breaching COVID-19 regulations.
The students, who were apparently drunk, started to randomly attack innocent people and passers-by resulting in one cornered motorist drawing out a pistol and firing warning shots to avoid being assaulted by the group. Police said in a statement:
The ZRP warns residents and university students against hosting parties late into the night and engaging in orgies of violence.
On 24/04/21, police in [Bulawayo] arrested Michael Muza (30) for breaching COVID-19 regulations.The suspect hosted a party for his fellow university students in Selborne Park, [Bulawayo] which resulted in violence and attack on innocent motorists who were passing by.
A cornered motorist had to fire warning shots to evade attack from marauding students.
The party organiser clearly contravened COVID-19 regulations which include a curfew order.
Under the relaxed COVID-19 regulations announced by President Emmerson Mnangagwa in early March, a curfew is to be observed from 10 PM to 5 AM as part of the measures to curb the spread of the coronavirus.
However, some unruly elements flagrantly flout the restrictions raising fears of a third wave as winter approaches.
