Police are holding four people suspected of supplying drug-laced cookies and snacks in several schools in Wakiso and Kampala.
Police spokesperson, Fred Enanga has identified the suspects as Rachael Masanga, SuilamanKasoozi, Joshua Ayo, and JoviaMbabazi.
The four have allegedly been making deliveries in schools in Kira-Municipality in Wakiso district, Bugolobi, Kulambiro, and other parts of Kampala district.
Trouble for the suspects started over the weekend when one unnamed school suspended ten female students in Namugongo who had ordered the drug-laced cookies for a party at the school whose security later alerted police.
Police have since recovered suspected drug substances the suspects have been using to make cookies, pancakes, snacks, and other foodstuffs.
