The dog successfully traced the criminals and recovered property. Some of the property includes electric wires that had been stolen from the home of Mr. Wamasali Simon, a resident of Bugabe village.
Mr. Wamasali revealed that to his surprise, the dog K9 could find his property. He said he could not think that his neighbors could be part of the incident.
In another case, a one Mafabi claimed his timber had been stolen. Officers then introduced the dog at the scene of the crime, and it led them to the home of Mr. Wanendeye Rasid about 150m away. Police recovered exhibits and arrested the suspect.
On various occasions, police dogs fail to trace criminals.
However, the K9 of Sironko has proved the importance of police dogs in cracking down on criminality. Especially if they manage the scenes of crime well.
Meanwhile in Kampala, and in recent times, following intense operations on the Northern Bypass with the aim of clamping down on thugs, criminals have shifted to villages near the Northern Bypass.
Joint task teams of the police and UPDF on Tuesday (01.02.2022) carried out an intelligence-led operation in areas of Gaza, which is located in Mabito.
According to Police, the village is a known hiding place for suspected criminals terrorizing Nateete, Busega, and Kampala areas.
Earlier in Feb, Police arrested some 90 suspects and detained them at Nateete Police Station. The suspects have been engaging in crimes like phone theft during rush hours, burglary, and aggravated robbery.
These thugs stab some of their victims and assault them before robbing off their property.

![[dropcap]A[/dropcap] section of women in Bugongo parish and Nawangaiza parish in Nawandala Sub County, Iganga District have decried the near-impossible terms set for them to access GROW funds. They have now petitioned their woman member of parliament for Iganga Hon. Kauma Sauda Alibaawo to ask the government for revised terms and conditions. This is to enable them to benefit from the program. The disgruntled women accuse the implementers of the program of charging the money. They are also asking for their land titles and land agreements. They said that such properties are governed by their husbands. These, therefore want the government through their woman MP to intervene and revise the requirements for one to benefit. The women were on Wednesday at Namabwere primary school in Nawandala Sub County. They had gathered in their respective groups to receive over 300 chickens from Hon Alibaawo in her campaign to improve the livelihood of women in Iganga district. Each group was given 50 chicken as start-up capital in their journey to prosperity. Read what some leaders said; Ms Naigambi Lydia from Nawandala Trading Centre says, “They solicited money from us through opening bank accounts and depositing Shs80,000. They also asked for land titles and land agreements from us yet we don’t have such things. I was informed that I needed to have a business with a capital of Shs4m yet my capital was very small.” The chairperson Kisoboka Saving Group in Nawandala Ms. Nakagolo Faith said they were not able to join the program. This is given the many conditions attached. She also asked their woman MP to raise their concerns to the relevant offices. The MP condemned the mode of implementation of the program. She cited that it has turned to benefit the well-off class of women other than the intended group. She further asked the government to intervene saying the current strings attached to the programme are very tight to accommodate a common woman. GROW project is a Government of Uganda initiative that arose out of the need to respond to the needs of women entrepreneurs. This is especially those who want to grow their businesses, sustain their self-employment and create more jobs.
