THE eThekwini Central Cluster is appealing to all residents who reside in Durban to limit visitation to police stations if matters are not too urgent, during the lockdown period.
Captain Muzi Maphumulo from eThekwini Central Cluster said the lockdown means that a person should limit his or her movements, to prevent coming in contact with other people.

“There shall be no visitation to our detention centres from now until 16 April or until further notice which will be determined by the lockdown period. The police station will be operating to cater for our communities, however we appeal that people should only come to the police station if their issue is urgent, such as to report cases,” he said.
