Sun 24 October 2021:
President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda announced on Sunday that the culprits of the bomb attack in Kampala, Uganda’s capital, on Saturday night will be prosecuted.
Museveni said he had been briefed that three people left a plastic shopping bag at the scene that later exploded, killing one person and injuring five others.
“It seems to be a terrorist act but we shall get the perpetrators,” Museveni said in a Twitter post on Sunday.
He said investigators were still combing the bomb site and more details would be released later, including advice for the public about “dealing with these possible terrorists”.
“The public should not fear, we shall defeat this criminality like we have defeated all the other criminality committed by the pigs who don’t respect life,” Museveni said.
Museveni said available information shows that three people dropped off a polythene bag which later exploded, killing one person and injuring five others.
The blast came days after the British and French embassies here issued a security alert to their citizens, warning of a terror attack.
