Mwanza/Dar. The silence by the Police Force over allegations against a senior government official in one of the Lake Zone regions, accused of sexually assaulting a student, has raised questions, as others try to figure out why the police, who are mandated to ensure the safety of citizens, would choose not to address such a serious matter.
Since it transpired, the incident has triggered nationwide discussions and concerns. Some voices in these discussions are calling on the Police Force to break their silence and take legal action against the accused.
