{At least 18 South Koreans have been arrested in Buhweju District after authorities found them administering expired drugs to patients.}<\/p>\n
The district police commander, Mr Ben Nuwamanya Kashumbusha, confirmed the arrest that took place last Friday in Marinde, Engaju Sub-county.<\/p>\n
The suspects are linked to the Seventh Day Adventist faith and had reported in the area on Thursday for a crusade.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese people came in a humble way and we even gave them security but we later found them in another unlawful business,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
However, Daily Monitor could not independently verify the expired drugs in question.<\/p>\n
According to police authorities, the suspects were arrested and detained with their coordinator, a pastor.<\/p>\n
Mr Nuwamanya said police had opened investigations into the allegations of treating locals without clearance from authorities.<\/p>\n
The Resident District, Mr Emmy Kateera Turyabagyenyi, appealed to the public to avoid going for free medical services provided by foreigners where they don\u2019t see local leaders involved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
