Police in Soroti are detaining two security guards affiliated with SGA Security Company in connection with an attempted robbery at the Equity Bank Soroti branch.

The two suspects held by the police include a security guard and his supervisor associated with a private security firm.

The attempted robbery reportedly occurred in the early hours of the morning when assailants purportedly attempted to use a ladder to gain entry into the bank. However, law enforcement swiftly intervened, summoning both the police and the UPDF.
