Fake Money Bust in Uganda.
The State House Anti-Corruption Unit worked with the police and airport security in Entebbe, Uganda. On Friday, they found $2 million in fake US dollars at a garage.
The team had been watching the garage since May. They got a tip about some suspicious boxes at the airport. On December 17th, someone snuck the boxes out of the airport. The team found out and followed the boxes to the garage.
When they searched the garage, they found 40 metal boxes. The boxes had fake US money in them. The criminals put dirt in the boxes to make them seem heavy.
The team also found other boxes that looked like they contained things to ship, but those boxes were empty or contained trash.
The police caught three people who they thought did the crime. They are still looking for more people who may have helped.
The fake money bust was a big win for the State House Anti-Corruption Unit. They worked hard to stop the bad guys. They will keep trying to make Uganda safer.
