The arrest of the suspect that took place on Monday is part of the Police crackdown on automobiles and drivers using forged traffic related documents. <\/p>\n
Chief Inspector of Police (CIP) Bonaventure Karekezi, the Police spokesperson for the Southern region said that Police mounted a checkpoint and they first apprehended the owner of the Fuso truck plate number RAD 850G, who was driving it at the time.<\/p>\n
The Fuso truck loaded with charcoal bags was at the time headed to Kigali from Nyamagabe District.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe mechanical certificate for the Fuso indicated that it would expire on August 23, 2019, when officers checked with a Hand-Held Terminal (HHT) device they found that it expired on June 12, 2019, the person (owner) who was driving it at the time was held, but it later came to light that his driver (Habineza) was behind the forgery. Habineza was later traced and brought into custody,\u201d CIP Karekezi explained.<\/p>\n
The HHT is a cashless system and part of the Rwanda National Police (RNP) Information Management System. Penalized traffic offenders can pay using smart cards, VISA or telecom banking systems and can check the authenticity of vehicle mechanical certificate and driver\u2019s license.<\/p>\n
\u201cOperations are continuous, and with the HHT, anyone holding forged traffic-related documents will be brought to book,\u201d CIP Karekezi said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
