While addressing journalists at Police headquarters in Naguru a Kampala suburb, Assuman Mugyenyi the Director of Operations said the Unit will help police to identify officers who will expose witnesses to danger.

Last week on Friday after the assassination of Kaweesi, some residents in Kulambiro came out alleging that they saw the killers unfortunately, their faces were displayed by some media houses.
