Buyende District Police Commander (DPC) ASP Kirumira Muhammad has finally thrown in a towel, Uganda Mirror Reports.<\/p>\n
\u201cTherefore 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,\u201d reads a statement on Kirumira\u2019s official Facebook Page.<\/p>\n
Recently the police tribunal charged Muhammad Kirumira with six counts.<\/p>\n
He was charged with torture, extortion, corruption, bribery, unlawful arrests and excessive use of authority.<\/p>\n
Kirumira however says that these are fabricated cases aimed at staining his image.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs 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.\u201d<\/p>\n
