“We received several calls from residents of Karu-site that they have some persons who keep very large gatherings at night.

“We came in and discovered them, we went to court and prayed the Judge, and her Lordship gave us seal off order for the property, Karu Paris Lounge and Cool Leo, which we have done.

“Beside the case of COVID-19 which is the key issue, these are highly populated residential areas, so the owners must revert to the original approved use within two weeks, if they fail to do the needful bulldozers will enter here after expiration of the deadline.”

Attah explained that the taskforce operation was not limited to a particular area, but comprehensive.
