The territorial Police of Kawempe is investigating a case of murder case against Gideon Nabasa, 31, a private security guard with Afrisafe Guard company.
According to Kampala Metropolitan deputy spokesperson Luke Owoyesigyire, on Sunday at about 0430hrs while police officers were on motorised patrols in Kazo Lugoba Zone Kaazo Ward, Nabweru Division Wakiso District, they found Nabasa carrying a sack on a motorcycle registration number UFG 635P.
Owoyesigyire says that the officers were suspicious of what he was carrying which prompted them to ask for a search.
“They found a dead body of a male adult suspected to be in his early 20s in the sack and immediately arrested him.
A team of investigators was called in at the scene and the body was later conveyed to city mortuary Mulago for a post mortem,” he reveals.
Owoyesigyire explains that the body had two wounds suspected to be a result of a stabbing.
“Nabasa hasn’t yet cooperated well with the police to help us identify the deceased and where he got the body from. Our investigations to identify the deceased are ongoing,” he says.
The suspect has been detained at Kawempe Police Station on allegations of murder.
