Cheptegei and Chesang were promoted at a function that was presided over by the Inspector General of Police, Mr Martins Okoth-Ochola at Naguru Police Headquarters.
By virtue of their promotion, their monthly salary has jumped from Shs270, 000 to close to Shs500, 000.
A day after the trio won medals, deputy police spokesperson, Mr Patrick Onyango, said they were to be promoted to appreciate their effort towards raising the Uganda flag.
