National Security Minister says Bike show organisers should be charged

Minister for National Security Rayburn Blackmoore has called for the arrest of the organizers of the July 25th Bike Fest tour.

The tour culminated at a popular bar in Pottersville and since then, a number of persons who attended have tested positive for COVID-19.

Blackmoore is calling for the arrest of the organizers as he says they were not given permission to have an event of such magnitude and in turn compromised the health and safety of many Dominicans.

Speaking to state radio, he says he believes that the organizers should be held accountable.

Blackmoore reiterated that the laws; especially those concerning Covid-19 should be strictly enforced.
