Security personnel in Karamoja have disclosed that some districts in South Karamoja have not fully embraced the presidential amnesty of voluntary handover of illegal fire arms.

Police spokesperson for Karamoja, IP Mike Longole has named the districts as Moroto, Amudat, Napak and Nakapiripirit, saying these districts have continued to register isolated cases of cattle raids especially between the Pokot and Pian.

Longole cited the theft of 94 goats and sheep in Namoni Aloris village, Kosike sub-county in Nabilatuk district on Tuesday night.

Longole says this prompted security forces to conduct an operation in Alakas and Nakabaat, leading to recovery of three guns.

According to the police spokesperson, the guns were recovered in Nakabaat village, Rupa sub-county in Moroto district.

He says security will continue conducting operations in troublesome areas to ensure equitable peace is enjoyed all over Karamoja.

On the other hand however, Longole commended the districts in Northern Karamoja for embracing the presidential amnesty and thereby voluntarily returning guns to the authorities.
