[Archival Sense]

Security forces have recovered 63 stolen cattle and 24 goats after a gun battle with suspected cattle raiders in Abim District.

The attack happened on 18 July when suspected armed raiders from the Jie community in Kotido District stormed livestock grazing at Oreta Hills and stole the animals belonging to two residents of Napak District.

A joint team from the Anti-Stock Theft Unit (ASTU) and the Uganda People's Defence Forces (UPDF) quickly tracked down the suspects. After exchanging gunfire, the raiders abandoned all the stolen animals and fled.

Authorities say all the recovered cattle and goats will be returned to their rightful owners.
