In response to a recent apprehension of three individuals found in possession of a firearm concealed within a bag, local law enforcement in Jinja City has taken measures to enhance public safety. As a result, authorities have temporarily prohibited pedestrian access to the Old Railway Bridge during nighttime hours.

The decision to implement this restriction stems from concerns over potential threats to the well-being of pedestrians traversing the bridge after dark. By imposing this measure, law enforcement aims to mitigate the risk of criminal activity and safeguard the welfare of the community.

The incident leading to this action unfolded when authorities successfully apprehended three suspects, who were discovered carrying a gun concealed in a sack. Recognizing the severity of the situation, the police promptly responded by taking decisive action to ensure public safety.

By enforcing restrictions on nighttime pedestrian access to the Old Railway Bridge, local law enforcement hopes to create a safer environment for residents and visitors alike. This proactive approach is intended to maintain peace, security, and tranquility within Jinja City, fostering a sense of security for its residents.

While inconveniences may arise as a result of this temporary measure, the primary objective remains to protect the public and prevent potential harm. Law enforcement officials are actively working to restore unrestricted pedestrian access to the Old Railway Bridge during nighttime hours once they are confident that the necessary safety measures have been put in place.

In the meantime, authorities advise pedestrians to utilize alternative routes or adjust their travel plans accordingly. By cooperating with these temporary restrictions, individuals can contribute to the collective effort of maintaining public safety while ensuring the smooth functioning of the city’s infrastructure.

Jinja City’s law enforcement remains committed to upholding the rule of law and preserving the well-being of its citizens. The decisive action taken in response to the recent incident highlights their dedication to creating a secure environment for everyone within the community.Mubi clarified that the canines were procured over the weekend from Richard Okullu, who serves as the Kiira Region Police Commander. The main purpose behind obtaining these dogs was to enhance their investigative capabilities, with a specific focus on areas such as Bugembe, Mafubira, Namulesa, Buwekula, and Wanyange.
