400 Mawozo Members Arrested, Weapons Seized

Three (3) alleged members of 400 Mawozo were fatally wounded in a shootout with the Police on Thursday, June 29, 2023, around 10 o’clock in the morning, in the municipality of Ganthier, located in the Croix-des-Bouquets district.

During this police operation, a modified M4 rifle and a 12-gauge shotgun were also confiscated by the Police.
