Paul Hembah who disclosed this while briefing newsmen in MĂ kurdi said on Tuesday in Utange council ward of Kastina-Ala, troops of OPWS and community volunteer guards on a patrol encountered some bandits and in a gun duel, and killed two of them.

“The bandits on a reprisal attack on Wednesday attacked a volunteer guard who was on patrol and killed him. On Thursday troops on patrol encountered the bandits in Utange council ward and in a gun battle three were killed,” he said.
