According to the Kampala Metropolitan police deputy spokesperson Luke Owoyesigyire, two of the suspects were found in possession of a UPDF shirt and a bullet.
He says others were found with machetes, a pair of pliers, nails, harmers and other objects they allegedly use to assault the public.
Oweyesigyire says the operation to net these suspects was prompted by continuous robberies and attacks by people using motor cycles.
This comes on the heels of directive form the police Director of Operations AIGP Edward Ochom to all police commanders across the country to strengthen implementation of covid-19 regulations, citing increased laxity among members of the public.
