Uganda Police has today raided the home of Buyende district RDC, ASP Mohammed Kirumira, Uganda Mirror reports.

It has been revealed that upon seeing Police officers in his compound, Kirumira locked himself in the house but this did not stop Uganda Police from executing their mission.

They cut the locks and forced their way into the house.

As they executed the arrest, they fired live bullets to disperse the crowd that had started to gather.

Kirumira opined that if he is to be arrested, the officers should first produce a warranty of arrest.

This website understands that yesterday, ASP Kirumira took to social media and announced that he is quitting police due to victimisation.

“Therefore as a senior officer who has laboured to wipe out crime without any special facilitation, I have realised that my image before the administration shall never change and given the fact that I am still a young man, I have resigned from the force to enable the police court fulfil their motives,” Kirumira said before adding that; “As you may be aware the police administration decided to press various charges on me which look to be criminal but preferred them under disciplinary court and whereas these are old framed up charges the police has persistently kept on looking at me as criminal and the purpose of this trial in an internal tribunal is to find ways of undermining my reputation.”

Uganda Police Spokesperson Emilian Kayima responded by opining that Kirumira didn’t follow the correct procedure.

“The Uganda Police Force has received embarrassing messages from various media outlets attributed to ASP Kirumira Muhammad, DPC Buyende that he has resigned from the Uganda Police Force. He has even gone ahead to grant interviews to various media houses which act is an act of indiscipline and totally contravenes the code of conduct of serving police officers,” said Kayima in a statement.

“Part IV of the Police Act guides us on appointments, promotions, recruitment, service and discharge or termination of appointments.

“For that matter therefore, ASP Kirumira Muhamad cannot and should not resign from the Uganda Police Force through a WhatsApp message or through granting interviews to the media.

“What he did is an act of gross indiscipline amounting to scandalous conduct which cannot be tolerated by the Uganda Police Force.”
