Police have launched a manhunt for singer Alien Skin real name Mugwanya Patrick over an alleged attempt to assault Andrew Mukasa, commonly known as Bajjo.
A video of the incident has been making the rounds on social media since last evening. The incident occurred at around 6 p.m. within the Kirudu zone, Luwafu Parish, Makindye Division, in Kampala, at a car washing facility owned by Bajjo.
The police say that Alien Skin and his ‘gang’ allegedly attempted to assault Bajjo, who defended himself using pepper spray.
During their escape, Bajjo’s car, a Toyota Wish with registration number UBK 123C was damaged. As a result, a confrontation arose between the security guard, Okalebo Vincent, from Caltec Security Company, and Alien Skin’s group, which resulted in the guard discharging his firearm, causing damage to their vehicle.
According to the Kampala Metropolitan deputy spokesperson, Luke Owoyesigyire, they have taken action, arresting one individual, Ibra Kabadia (one of the members of Alien’s group), and the security guard, as part of the ongoing investigation into the incident of malicious damage and the shooting.
“Alien Skin managed to evade capture during the Police intervention. We are actively pursuing his arrest, as well as the apprehension of his associates, to hold them accountable for the damage they caused to the vehicles at the car washing facility,” he said.
