Security experts have advised security agencies, especially police to improve their community policing in the fight against attacks.<\/p>\n

Of recent, a series of attacks by unknown perpetrators have targeted police and army installations, assassinating security personnel in some installations and making off with guns.<\/p>\n

In response, police were forced to merge some stations countrywide even though this has caused an uproar among residents over security concerns in their respective areas.<\/p>\n

Speaking to KFM, criminology expert also founder of the London-based Richards Private Investigations, Richard Musaazi revealed that good police relations with the public would offer a fertile ground for successful investigations to track the brains behind the atrocities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Police should stop talking but act. It must involve the public in its investigations; at certain instances, people know what happens and who does what,” Musaazi said.<\/p>\n

According to Musaazi, the Ugandan police should engage the public in designing its crime Intelligence strategies, if they are to be a success.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Police leadership should strike a balance between how the public wants to be policed, how they should be policed and how the police wants to police them,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Musaasizi says prioritizing the public needs in policing would build confidence in the people provide the required information for successful investigation to mount cases against the forces behind the attacks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
