Alfred Bwambale, a member of the Red Cross rescue team says they have now lost the hope of finding any body buried under the rubble. Similarly, Mtungu Masereka, a resident whose son’s body is yet to be recovered says the family is losing the hope of ever finding his remains.
The mudslides occurred in Kitholu Sub County on Thursday following heavy rains that led to the bursting of River Tunga on the mountainous parts of Rwenzori on Thursday.
