Police in Chiradzulu have arrested three people for being found in possession of a pistol without permit.

District police spokesperson Sergeant Innocent Moses told Zodiak on Saturday that they arrested the suspects after receiving a tip that the three were offering for sale a Star pistol at Nguludi turn off.
