The new Force’s spokesperson Acp Rusoke Kituuma says on July 4, 2024, at around 1930 hours, one Shamusita Tukahirwa, a mobile money agent who operates from Arubaine market, Arubaine B village, Busia municipality, Busia District, was robbed of cash estimated to be over ten million shillings (10,000,000=) and five telephones.

It is alleged that she was waylaid by two persons armed with a gun as she disembarked from a boda-boda to a boutique in town.
