The Daily Monitor reports that Inspector General of Police Abbas Byakagaba passed out 7,018 former Election Special Police Constables at the Police Counter Terrorism Training School, Olilim, after training for deployment with licensed private security firms. According to the IGP, police leadership decided after the election period to place the constables with private security organisations rather than let their skills go to waste.
A national event, not tied to one district.
