Two Senior Police Officers Demoted Over Nagirinya’s Murder

The police disciplinary standby court at Police Headquarters, has found 8 officers guilty, after they neglected to promptly and diligently attend to their duty on the night of the 28/08/2019 and 29/08/2019.  One officer was additionally charged, with discreditable conduct when he failed to professionally attend to the relatives of kidnap victims, Maria Nagirinya and Ronald Kitayimbwa, who had sought his assistance.

During their hearing it was found that the officers violated requirements of duty, to remain alert and observant. Others were absent from duty that evening.  It was also noted that so many errors, delays in fast tracking the CCTV footages and miscommunications were made, minutes and hours after the double kidnap. All in all, the officers while at Old Kampala, Nateete and Katwe Police stations respectively showed an unwillingness to perform their duties, as well as take appropriate action during the occasion of the crime.
