KAMPALA, JULY
25 (Xinhua / GNA) – Several Rwandans were arrested during one operation
led by the army in the suburbs of the Ugandan capital, Kampala.
Lieutenant-Colonel Deo
Akiiki, deputy spokesman for the army, told Xinhua by phone on Wednesday that
"some Rwandans" were under their care as a result of the operation
targeted a church in one of the suburbs of the city. Akiiki says
the operation was still in progress.
"That's true
we did an operation today and because of the sensitivity of the question,
we can not divulge more details, "he said.
"What do you
should know is that we arrested Rwandans, "said Akiiki
asked what was the number of Rwandans in detention.
The local newspaper
Monitor reported that more than 40 Rwandans have been arrested and found
with fake Ugandan national identity cards.
In April, more
more than 40 Rwandans were arrested in the western district of Kasese.
Although they
were found in possession of valid Rwandan national identity cards,
they did not have permission to enter Uganda.
The group was
later released and returned to Rwanda.
