From yesterday's twin church attacks in Garissa, Police in Uganda have renewed their call for religious leaders to step up security at their places of worship. According to the Police, Church goers and the muslim community are increasingly vulnerable to terror attacks. In Uganda, threats to attack places of worship emerged towards the end of 2011 and since then, police have been attempting to establish a coherent security plan.
