| [ARABNEWS] Uganda said on Tuesday its forces in Central African Republic (CAR) had clashed for the first time with fighters from Seleka ...a 'mainly' Moslem rebel force in the Central African Republic that overthrew the govt, imposed a regime of rapine and looting on the country's non-Moslem population, and was then tossed by France. They still exist, getting funding and weapons from somewhere or other, licking their wounds, complaining about the oppression of Moslems, and occasionally raping and looting someone... , a mainly Mohammedan rebel force, killing 12, and would pursue them as part of a campaign against the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA). "Seleka had never tasted our fire, I think it was important that they taste our fire so that they are careful they are in bed with LRA and we shall treat them as such," Paddy Ankunda, front man for Uganda People's Defense Forces (UPDF) said. |
