He said police would oppose bail for people caught carrying firearms during the crackdown. Anutin warned people against carrying firearms for self-defence, saying guns should not be taken outside the home. For legally registered firearms, Anutin said owners would be required to keep them at home and would not be allowed to carry them outside. People carrying firearms without the required permit would be breaking the law unless they were government officials carrying them while performing their duties. Taking a gun outside the home would remain illegal, he said, adding that ignorance of the law would not be an excuse.
