In his speech at burial of Susan Magara yesterday in Kitoba, Hoima district, minister for security Lt Gen Henry Tumukunde apologised to the public over government’s failure to rescue the deceased.
“We plead guilty to the death of Magara (Susan) because I know we could have saved her. But we failed to track the kidnappers because they were too sophisticated,” Tumukunde said.
However, he also hit out at those pointing fingers at security organs saying; “People should stop blaming security organs claiming infightings as the cause of her death. I am tired of people pointing fingers at us. You people only know crimes related to cattle and bicycle theft, the issue we were handling was sophisticated. Even us when we left the bush we were not the best, we have trained on job.”
