Four civil servants in Kigezi sub-region were Tuesday arrested on charges of abuse of office, causing financial loss and embezzlement.

Mr Elly Maate, Kigezi Regional Police Spokesperson told uncovered news that “The accused persons have been brought here at Kabale police station for safe custody as plans are underway to take them to State House Anti-Corruption Unit headquarters in Kampala for further investigations,”.
