Five guns were recovered in separate operations and voluntary engagement across the Karamoja Sub-region.

On 10th Feb 24, in Kaabong district the joint security forces recovered two guns after a night patrol carried out on spot cordon and search operation in the suspected area of Lomonye village, Morulem parish, Kaabong East Sub County in Kaabong district.

As a result of a fruitful effort, Sub Machine Gun (SMG) number P07743 BC and another numberless SMG with 1 and 7 live rounds of ammunition respectively were forcefully recovered. In the same operation, four male adult suspects were arrested in connection to the criminal acts and are currently held under custody at UPDF’s 45 Infantry Battalion headquarters in Kaabong district for further investigation.
