A total of 292 persons were detained across Manipur on Wednesday for violating curfew imposed in the state in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak, police said. A total of 141 vehicles were also seized. All the detained persons were produced before courts which imposed fines on them, a statement issued by Additional Director General of Police (law and order) L Kailun said.

The officer appealed to the people to remain indoors. Curfew has been imposed in Manipur since March 23 after a coronavirus case was reported in the state. The COVID-19 patient has now recovered.
