The minister of Lands, Housing and Urban Development, Ms Judith Nabakooba, has dispatched a team from Kampala to investigate land wrangles in Mityana, Kassanda and Mubende districts.
Last week, a four-man team commenced investigations with visiting most of the affected areas in the three districts.
However, the team was overwhelmed by accusations that police and local leaders were fuelling land evictions.
Led by Mr Abraham Luwalira, the chairperson of Uganda Bibanja Holders Association, the team started their probe from Kiteredde Village in Kiganda Sub-county, Mubende District.
