dc.description	The study found that criminality in Kampala Metropolitan Area was caused by myriad factors namely: poor family background which has caused behavioral problems among who have grown outside of familiar boundaries; erosion of the social moral fabric which has encouraged permissiveness; the frequent occurrence of criminal behaviour in certain places which motivates criminality; societal tolerance of anti-social behaviour; as well as lapses in the enforcement of the law.	en_US
