Opposition party, National Unity Platform (NUP) MPs, Hon. Ssegirinya Muhammad and Hon. Allan Ssewanyana have been charged at Masaka Chief Magistrates Court with four counts, three of murder and one of attempted murder and remanded to Kitalya prison until 15th September.
Prosecution led by Richard Birivumbuka, states that on Aug 23, 2021, while at Ssetala village in Kimanya Kabonera division, the duo participated in the murder of Sulaiman Kakooza, Michael Kiza Nswa, and Tadeo Kiyimba. Robert Ssebyato survived an attempt on his life.
The development came on the same day the High court in Kampala, threw out an election petition against Kawempe North MP Muhammad Ssegirinya on grounds that he wasn’t rightfully served with the petition as he was in Kitalya prison on charges of inciting violence.
Kindadala says he will appeal the ruling.
