Tom Harry Police normally use the word suspect why don’t they keep it in mind when arresting them, in this case it’s OK to arrest that Catholic brother because he was in a right place at a wrong time. Uganda police know everyone who’s caught in such a situation is a criminal not a suspect. I think Gen. Kale should train his young boys on how to arrest suspectsJimmy Wello bro. that’sa not not news. it’s exactly how our only savior jesus christ was deliberately betrayed, arrested, mocked, insulted, crucified, killed & burried in the guise of being a criminal which even the leaders of the world and nature disagreed with their actions!. pls’ forgive & forget, the lord is with u.
Ronnie Mukasa That’s why we sometimes say that Uganda police lack professional skills and knowledge of handling some situations they don’t ask who u are just act arrogantly no wonder they also say that they are protecting pipo and their properties in that manner only looking for what’s remaining in your pockets nothing else all are thieves as their chief above the so called m7 ate tuli bakoowu gundi
Proscovia Anek May God bless brother for the heart he showed to this police whose hearts are upsidedown. God will surely pay for ur pain brother, u did what is expected of a true Christian. Pray for our country in this lent period.
Murangira Aram I do not know many people have been arrested. His case exposes police and security agencies.
Paul Adrian OkelloIt leaves me wondering, why those police should go in plain clothes beating Ugandans for nothing. Why don’t they out on their uniforms, if they think what they are doing is right. And lastly, this guy should be paid damages.
Fred Egbea AnguzuThen why did they torture him upto that extend? . I don’t think some of us who normal work upto late night are safe if this is the kind of the police we are to trust in.
Mwesezi Franc Brother the police we have is a disgrace! Sorry about them but they should turn back to God.!
