Inspector General of Police (IGP) Solomon Arase has said that stun
guns will soon be introduced as part of efforts to reduce casualties
associated with misuse of firearms by police officers. On the introduction of stun guns, the IGP said: “Right now, what we
are trying to do is to discourage issuing firearms to police officers,
who go on metro patrol. And that is why we are thinking of
introducing stun guns this year.
“Stun guns can incapacitate you, demobilise you, but they will not kill
you. So, in case there is a mistake, then we will be able to ensure that
the fatality is not such that will result in death.
