Press Release

Reported Case Of Suicide By Lt Amon Ariho

 

The UPDF has received a report on a case of suicide by Lt Ariho of our Engineers Brigade. This is very regrettable given the fact that there are established channels to handle individual and collective challenges in the institution.

 

The CDF assures the public that the UPDF will carry out a thorough investigation and whoever shall be found culpable will be brought to book.

 

We appreciate that individuals do not have equal or similar skills to handle challenges, therefore we encourage our personnel to always seek administrative and professional help using our established structures.

 

MUNGU PAMOJA NASI.
