Abamu h’Abalevi abakaba batarukuheereza nk’abanyakatagara, bakoraga emirimo endi nk’okuheereza nk’abapolisi. Abapoliisi banu badumirwaga omukuru w’abalinzi ba yekaru. Omuhandiiki Omuyudaaya arukwetwa Philo nasoborra emirimo y’abapoliisi banu nagamba ati: “Abalevi abamu bakoraga nkaba balinzi b’emiryango, abandi balindaga omu [yekaru munda] omu maiso ga h’Aharukwera kutanga omuntu wena atasemeriire kutahamu abe akigenderiire rundi atakigenderiire. Abandi baikaraga nibetoroora Yekaru kugirinda. Abamu bakoraga nyamusana kandi abandi bakora ekiro.”

(Yoh. 7:32, 45, 46) Hanyuma abapoliisi banu n’omukuru wabo bakasindikwa kuleeta abegeswa ba Yesu omu maiso g’orukurato orw’abebembezi b’ediini ey’Ekiyudaaya, kandi nikisoboka kuba ngu abapoliisi banu nubo basikire omukwenda Paulo kumwiha omu yekaru.​—Eng. 4:1-3; 5:17-27; 21:27-30.
