Six people, including a fire officer, a primary school teacher, and a business manager, were held on Friday night in Manzanilla for breaching the Public Health Ordinance.
The six were held during a police operation supervised by Snr Sup Aguilal.
According to police reports, officers of the Eastern Division were conducting routine patrols throughout the district during an operation which lasted between 4 pm and 9 pm, when they observed a group of men liming near a bar along the Manzanilla Road.

As a result, they were all detained and charged.
The operation was led by Insp Richardson and Sgt Ramlakhan and also included PCs Flores, Verasammy and WPC King, among others.
