Chitungwiza Municipality orders the removal of pool tables operating at unauthorised sites within seven working days, citing concerns that some venues are being used for drug dealing. According to reports, the directive targets pool tables placed in locations that the municipality says are not approved, including residential areas, overnight parking bays, tuckshops, shebeens, road servitudes, and public transport terminals. The order is presented as part of the municipality’s efforts to address illegal activity and limit spaces it views as becoming “hubs” for drugs. The instruction is issued with a short compliance timeline, giving operators and affected site owners a week to remove the equipment from the listed types of sites. The reports do not provide details on enforcement steps beyond the removal timeframe or information about whether any specific incidents or investigations prompted the decision. Overall, both outlets describe the same municipal action, location categories affected, and the stated rationale centered on drug abuse fears.
