The Police in Matugga Policing Area have successfully recovered a three-year-old girl who had allegedly been kidnapped, and two suspects have been arrested in connection with the incident.
According to Kampala Metropolitan Police spokesperson Ms Rachel Kawala, It is alleged that the child left her home on 8th March to play with friends in the neighbourhood but did not return. Her mother searched for her in vain.
