“These pre-Christmas operations are systematically geared towards controlling key black spots around the city that are often used in harboring criminals and their activities,” said Kafeero.

“Throughout this remaining period towards Christmas Season, police shall be carrying out a series of high-profile days of action aimed at disrupting criminal activities and keeping the good people of Kampala safe during the festive period,” he added.

By the end of the operation, 38 out of the 146 suspects were released following a screening exercise by local leaders in the targeted areas.
