Five suspected members of a machete-wielding gang have been apprehended in a security operation in the Kyebando-Kyamuka zone, Nansana Municipality in Wakiso district.
The operation was prompted by a public outcry over a gang that had been ambushing people, particularly during late evening hours.
Nansana police have identified the suspects as Dennis Lumbuye, 21; Mudasir Kitandwe, 19 and Imran Muganzi, 19 among others.
SP Luke Owoyesigyire, the Deputy Kampala Metropolitan police spokesperson, disclosed that the suspects were found in possession of sharp machetes and Mairungi, which have been seized as exhibits.
SP Owoyesigyire further mentioned that the police are currently reviewing all recent robbery complaints in Nansana and Wakiso to determine whether this group was involved in these incidents. END
