Uganda – During a search in Uganda’s capital, Kampala, police discovered explosives and other weaponry near the site of a restaurant explosion that killed a waitress last month. A suicide belt, explosives, and an AK-47 rifle with 14 rounds of ammunition were discovered, according to police spokesperson Fred Enga in a statement released on Friday.

According to the police, several individuals were apprehended in the area, and one was shot dead as he allegedly attempted to flee by jumping off a police pick-up truck. On Monday, police announced that they had arrested 48 people in connection with two separate explosives, one of which was allegedly carried out by a suicide bomber aboard a bus traveling to the country’s west.
