Sangoma Suleiman Kabangala Mbuga has been transferred from Dubai airport to Awir Central Jail in Dubai.

Mbuga was arrested at Dubai airport a few weeks ago by Interpol after being put on the wanted list by Swedish police for allegedly defrauding a politician and tycoon Sten Heinsoo, 71 in a fake gold deal worth Shs23billion.

At the time of his arrest, Mbuga was trying to leave Dubai where he has been hiding for months.

His wife Vivian Chebet is still in hiding.

Expressen, a Swedish newspaper exclusively reported that preliminary investigations have led the police to one of Uganda’s most famous property mogul Sulaiman “SK” Mbuga, 34, and his wife Angella Vivienne Chebet, 33.

Sten Heinsoo was charged with gross negligence against the principals of trust. Even Vivienne Chebet – who is a Swedish citizen for a few years – was charged by the Stockholm District Court for several cases of gross fraud against Heinsoo in absentia. “SK” Mbuga has also been dragged into this verdict for probable same reasons suspected of the same crime.

“SK” Mbuga describes himself as a businessman but details of how he earned his money has been scanty. In July 2016, after he showered his wife with gifts in the form of a specially-ordered Mercedes-Benz, exclusive jewelry and a Dubai holidays, Ugandan newspaper New Vision reported that “the source of income is a mystery.”
