A senior presidential aide has asked the army for unmarked guns in order to conduct “covert operations” despite President Museveni’s June 2018 directive that all guns be finger-printed to stem abuse or use by criminals.
Maj Kakooza Mutale, the special presidential assistant for political affairs, made the demand - whose details this newspaper reveals for the first time today - in an August 10, 2019, letter to the Chief of Defence Forces (CDF), Gen David Muhoozi.
This was 14 months after Mr Museveni ordered engraving of all firearms in the hands of security forces so that cartridges retrieved from crime scenes can, through ballistic analysis, be matched to the bullet discharge gun and user.
