The territorial police in Sironko has registered 6 cases of theft, arson, destruction of property, and house break-ins, in the last two weeks.


The cases have all these been resolved and suspects arrested with the help of police canine that successfully helped to trace, recover and identify criminals behind the acts. 


The first case was that of theft of metallic fencing bars of the Sironko District Headquarters. Our K9 Berlin was introduced at the scene of crime, and led us for about 02 kilometers to the home of one Alex and Kirumira Sharif. Exhibits were recovered in the scrap store and the two arrested.

The police K9 led us for about 100 meters to the home of one Ojakol Tom, who upon, arrest confessed to having committed the crime and told our officers that it was his sister that sent him to burn the house of the co-wife to the complainant. He too was arrested.

The K9s/ sniffer dogs play an important role in supporting investigations. We therefore call upon the public not to always tamper with scenes of crime to help the dogs get the right scents/ traces that can easily be picked by dogs and get the probable culprits.

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent.  It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu".  We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service.  If you have not been denied registering your child i...

However, statistics show that international arrivals from the aforementioned areas have continue to drop. The UTB requires Shs4Bn to engage international & national media houses in production of positive tourism stories to improve destination perception in light of recent controversies that shade the destination in a bad light. However, this has remained unfunded,” said La...

They are used to doing other things. But somehow they managed to act properly, I was surprised.” When they [SFC] went where this young man was in the room, he had ca...
