8 suspects out of the 40 people that were recently arrested in connection with the murder of former Case Hospital accountant, Francis Ekalungar have been charged with murder and aggravated robbery.
The eight include; Mawa Muzamiru (driver of Case Hospital proprietor), Nalunga Resty Gorret, Kiwalabye Huzairu (brother to Boda Boda 2010 leader, Abdullah Kitatta), Yoga Deo and two private security guards of Case Hospital; Mulema Hamza and Chandia Vincent.
The others are two Congolese nationals; David Bizimani Fazil David and Kikandi Muhindo who are said to be refugees.
However, Abdallah Kitatta has not yet been charged. When asked about what charges he will face, Police Spokesman Emilian Kayima stated that he is not yet aware.
“Kitatta is not among those charged with murder. I don’t know where he falls. We are directed by the investigations, so where they take us, that’s the course we follow,” he added.
Days after the arrests, some of the suspects had led security agencies to a compound where the vehicle Ekalungar was driving prior to his death was found.
