Two of the four suspected robbers who invaded a cattle post along a gravel road between Linyanti and Sibbinda around 03h00 on Friday were armed with AK47 rifles, a Police spokesperson, Chief Inspector Angula Amulungu, said on Sunday.

The two armed suspects were accompanied by two unarmed companions, according to Amulungu.

The robbers tied up cattle herders living at the cattle post before they made off with solar panels and a shotgun that they robbed from their victims.

None of these items had been recovered yet, Amulungu said.
