Residents of Migori County have been seized with fear and panic after it is alleged that live explosives were found below the River Kuja Bridge, a very important transport link connecting the several parts of the region.
After the discovery, security teams quickly went to the place and surrounded the site with a red tape to prevent people from accessing the site. A bomb disposal team was sent to the scene to inspect the suspected explosives and make the area safe.
Authorities, therefore, unravel a security operation to find out how the explosives were hidden under the bridge and whether there is any danger of an explosion in the area. The bridge has been temporarily closed as the security officers conduct their checks since it is a place that is frequented by motorists and pedestrians.
Police have also directed the diversions for the vehicles and pedestrians to be followed until such time the situation is back to normal and that they are sure that no harm is likely to come to anyone.
The officers also state that all the measures which are necessary to keep the people and their property safe are the ones being put in place.
Security agencies have launched an investigation into the event as they endeavor to find out where the suspects came from and what their intention was.
