Police in Bundibugyo have shot dead a man suspected to be behind training and performing rituals on youth that engaged government forces in the recent post-election tribal-related violence in the district.<\/p>\n
Between February and March, at least 40 people were killed in the region, property destroyed and hundreds of people displaced following the violence in the Rwenzori sub-region.<\/p>\n
The district police commander, Mr Martin Tukahebwa, on Tuesday said police shot and killed Amanya Bukapa Muhindo who has been on the Force\u2019s wanted list of criminals as the ring leader of the youth called \u201cBakirumira-Mutima\u201d.
