The army has revealed they
are tracking for the suspects of last week’s murder in cold blood of a cyclist
and his passenger along Kotido-Kaabong road.
The
deceased identified as Daniel Owana and Ojapis were on 8TH September
2023 riding a motorcycle with registration number UFG 996P while returning to
Kaabong from the cultural event in Napak district.
However,
suspected warriors had laid an ambush and gunned them down as they approached
the Moruitit community camp.
While giving
a speech at the requiem mass of the late Fr. John Bosco Sire, the 405 brigade
commander Byaruhanga condemned the incident, saying it is painful to loose
innocent souls when the region is beginning to realize peace.
Byaruhanga
noted that they have identified the culprits and they know their homes and
parents and they are now tracking them to ensure they are brought to book.
He appealed
to the people of Kaabong to forgive the Jie for killing the duo and leave the
matter to be handled by the army.
