South Sudan has been identified as the major source for ammunitions used by assailants to terrorize people in Acholi sub-region.
Yesterday police confirmed the arrest of 15 people and recovery of three guns that have been used by assailants to robe and kill people in this area.
According to the police spokesperson Andrew Felix Kawesi, most of the guns that are used to kill people are ferried from neighboring South Sudan and sold cheaply.
He is however optimistic that illegal entry of firearms into Uganda will stop soon since the Uganda Police Force has reached an agreement with South Sudan National Police Service to address insecurity across the borders of the two countries.
