“As the thugs approached the area command, they began firing erratically and threw IEDs and petrol bombs to gain entry. Unfortunately, the police facility’s buildings were affected.

“However, the Command observed with grave concern the loss of life and property as a result of this attack, and has issued a call for calm as the police are determined to deny these criminal elements the space they need to carry out their evil deeds and increase the security of life and property in the state.”
