Police block attempted break-in at Mukono Electoral Commission office holding Mukono North ballot boxes

Police said officers prevented suspects from entering the Electoral Commission offices in Mukono, where ballot boxes for Mukono North Constituency were kept, during a night when the premises were without electricity. According to security sources cited by the Daily Monitor, the attackers appeared to be trying to tamper with the boxes to support a petition for a recount; a social media post shared in the article alleged the suspects were NRM youths. The Mukono district MPs-elect later held a press conference condemning the attempt.
