“His nephew returned home after a long wait and informed his father, identified as Martin. A serious search was conducted the following day at kitubulu, with the help of the local fishermen and the body of the victim retrieved.” Luke said
Police is so investigating to establish the culprits behind the opening of the beach, since it is a restricted area under the Ministry of Health guidelines on COVID-19. This includes the area territorial commanders who happen to have exhibited unprofessional behavior.”
He further warned the public to keep away from all beaches as they are still restricted.
