A group of 28 people was caught in a house located in Gisozi Sector, Gasabo District praying.
The house where the group had congregated, located in Musezero Cell, Nyakariba Village is owned by one only identified as Christine, who fled from the scene during the operation.
Prayer gatherings, worship services and visits are among the prohibited activities to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Rwanda National Police (RNP) spokesperson, CP John Bosco Kabera said that the violators belong to different religious denominations.
“They came from the sectors of Gisozi and Kinyinya. They include 20 women and eight men as well as children. The group was congested in a small room and there are higher chances that one infected person could have easily infected all others,” said CP Kabera.
