Unexploded suicide vest found at Uganda blast site

Kampala, Jul 13: Uganda government officials informed that the investigators recovered an unexploded suicide vest in a disco hall in Kampala, which indicated that al-Shabab militants were plotting to carry out more attacks.

Kale Kaihura, the Inspector General of police said that the discovery of the suicide vest in the suburb of Kampala on Monday, Jul 12 was coherent with the twin bomb blasts in Kampala. Kaihura added that it is a very significant lead in their investigation.
