Uganda protests police killing of two nationals in Rwanda

Uganda on Tuesday protested to Rwanda over the killing of two of its nationals by Rwandan security personnel and demanded that they be punished in a further sign of fraying relations between the neighboring states. The two Ugandans were shot dead early on Sunday after being intercepted by Rwandan police while smuggling goods over the nearby border with Uganda, a Rwandan police statement said. In a statement, the Ugandan government accused Rwanda's security personnel of reckless behavior.
