COLVA: Colva Police arrested 12 people for moving suspiciously and causing noise in the Varca region, and they also detained 22 more people and started the Stranger roll:
Early on August 13, 24—after receiving reports that some unidentified individuals from other states were acting strangely and upsetting the calm in the Varca area—the residents were informed. Colva Police arrived at the location quickly. 34 people in all, rounded up. Twelve were charged under BNSS section 35, while 22 people were the target of a stranger report.
Colva Police had already booked five people for touting on August 24, 24 under the Tourist Trade Act. They are being created in front of the Tourism Department today, August 13, 24.
That on August 12, 2024, Colva Police made a booking for five individuals for engaging in tourist touting, which involved handing out flyers and giving out free prizes with coupons to visitors and guests who were traveling through the Colva neighborhood. This caused congestion for both commuters and tourists.
When questioned, the stated individual was unable to present any formal documentation granting them permission to serve as an agent or guide. In order to stop them from being charged under Section 2(g) and Rule 26 of the Goa Daman and Diu Registration of Tourist Trade Act, 1982, they were therefore detained by the police.
