Sharjah: Sharjah Police have activated radars to monitor motorists who may violate the stay-at-home directives during the National Sterilisation Programme.
Radars on Sharjah roads will flash drivers who are moving around the city in their vehicles during the sterilisation operation from 8pm until 6am each night until April 5.
Residents have been urged to apply for move permits online on the police website (www.shjpolice.gov.ae) if they need to step out of the house for essential purposes only. If they move out without the permits, they will be liable to pay fines.
The General Command of Sharjah Police has activated the radar devices at all main entrances to the emirate, in addition to deploying more than 120 patrols daily in all areas of the emirate (Sharjah, Central Region, Eastern Region).
