“Detailed investigations revealed that the firearm belonged to a fourth suspect Loise Kaguongo, who was holding it illegally since her firearms license had expired,” the detectives said.
Kaguongo operates over 10 mobile money outlets and detectives believe that she is the link between the suspects and a wider criminal syndicate that is defrauding unsuspecting members of the public.
This comes barely a week after two suspects were arrested by the DCI with fake currency.
