It is said that the Police in Vuwani are accepting leads that can lead them to catching the vigilante suspects who severely assaulted three people and burnt motorcars at Ha-Mangilasi on 13 April 2022, Wednesday in the afternoon at approximately 18:15.
The police responded to the urgent call of the community members when they reported a group of people attacking three men after they were accused of stealing batteries from a TLB machine.
