Police have issued more summons to more stakeholders in the tragic new year’s concert incident at Freedom City, in which 10 people died in a stampede.
In the new development, police spokesperson Fred Enanga reveals that the proprietor of the venue, tycoon John Ssebalamu, the managers, other organizers of the event, the masters of ceremony, ushers, bouncers, and private security guards who were dedicated to the event have all been summoned.
Also, summoned are police officers and other security personnel who were deployed to secure the event.
Enanga says that at a later stage, the police will listen to the parents of some of the children to establish how they separated from them and got trapped in the passageway and gates.
On Tuesday, a court charged the promoter of the event, a one Abby Musinguzi alias Abitex, with nine counts of rash or negligent acts causing death. He was remanded to prison until January 10.
