In Kohlu, it is part of the people’s culture that all men carry arms. No matter his age or economic status, every man is supposed to have some fire arm with him. Various types of assault rifles, arms and ammunition are freely and easily available. This situation has resulted in problems in maintaining law and order for the law enforcing agencies. Major crimes like murder and robbery are common in the area due to the easy availability of weapons. There is no check on arms and only a few people have registered their arms with the district authorities.
