By Davis Mugabi
The Police say that the rebels of the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) are taking advantage of Kibaale National Park as their criminal hub where they sneak from and terrorize vulnerable residents in the district.
On Tuesday, December 26, 2023, suspected ADF-Rebels attacked a village in Kamwenge, where 3 people were burnt and killed.
Police Spokesperson Fred Enanga says that the UPDF and police have directed more resources in form of manpower, including the immediate recruitment of LDUs, to help counter such attacks from the ADF remnants in the area, identify collaborators within the community and also monitor all places neighbouring the National Park, where the remnants sneak from and terrorise the neighbourhood.
Meanwhile, yesterday, 27.12.2023, the UPDF managed to put out of action 2 ADF rebels and injured a third, during a fire exchange and violent confrontation with the ADF rebel group at 9am, at Kiziba zone, Kiziba parish, Kamwenge district. The village is next to Nyabitusi, which was attacked on the night of 25th – 26th.12.2023.
