Police officers implicated over theft of video equipment

By AFAYO SHADRACH BETHEL
Two Police officers attached to Kasasira Town Council Police station in Kibuku district are under investigation over the alleged involvement in the theft of video equipment worth Shs3M.
It’s alleged that Yahaya Magera a crime preventer and Zubairi Dankainea a police constable reportedly connived and stole equipment which included a laptop and two television sets from a video hall belonging to one Moses Nsubuga on Sunday night.
The Chairperson of the business community within Kasasira Town Council, Mr Augustine Naliko says that the implicated officers should be removed with immediate effect because what they have exhibited before the general public was totally against the code of the police.
This is not the first incident in the district where Police officers have been implicated in the theft, especially of cattle. Residents of Kataka parish, Tirinyi Town council have raised similar concerns that the Police are behind these thefts.
