URA to collect over sh200m from illegal vehicle cloners

Bbossa also noted that the assemblers were shipping in these motor vehicles as units transiting to South Sudan, where they acquire South Sudanese number plates, come back to Uganda, and illegally replace the South Sudanese number plates with those of Uganda.

“The unscrupulous car dealers imported the trucks as motor vehicle spare parts and later assembled them from Kampala to make complete units. They illegally assign them number plates of different vehicles,” Ibrahim Bbossa, URA’s spokesperson explained. (File Photo)
