These areas include Hohola, Suksuk Tyre Service down to Pitstop, Mobil Service Station, part of Garden Hills, and Six Mile near Saraga Market.
ACP Turi stated, the evictions will be carried out by landowners or property owners. He also mentioned that police will assist to ensure these eviction exercises go smoothly.
He said the evictions are pending court orders from the National Court, and people residing in the mentioned areas are advised to be prepared for relocations.
