Two months earlier, unknown gunmen attacked a police checkpoint at Kiwumpa along the Kampala-Gulu highway and hacked an officer to death before making off with two guns.
In the wake of the attacks, Maj Gen Katisgazi said that the people behind the attacks are a new rebel group that think they can change the government by force. He said these target the police posts where officers are absent.
