A children’s charity is reporting this, saying arrests have been made but no cases have come to court.
The Kyampisi Childcare Ministries says some people believe blood sacrifices will bring wealth and power.
Six cases were reported from October to February in four districts in central Uganda.
Moses Binoga, coordinator of the anti-trafficking task force at the interior ministry, says children have been reported missing during the election period, but he can’t confirm the charity’s reports.
He says seven children and six adult sacrifice cases were reported in Uganda last year, compared to nine children and four adult sacrifice cases reported in 2014.
