It said, “reports available to the Government indicate that lives were lost, houses and personal effects destroyed, and shops were burgled. To guard against these acts, Government finds it imperative to impose a statewide curfew from 8 pm to 6 am until peace is restored”.

The State Government, therefore, directed security agencies to ensure compliance.
