Police in Bugiri have arrested Samson Winyi Kazungu a 40-year-old brother to former Bugiri District Inspector of Schools, David Tenywa Kazungu whose body was this week found dumped in a pitlatrine by the assailants who murdered him.
The detectives have also arrestes 24-year-old Carol Ndibogeza.
The two join the first three suspects; Benard Mulondo (KKazungu’s relative), Musa Waiswa and his (Waiswa’s) father Charles Okea all residents of Buyubu village in Kapyanga sub county in custody at CPS Bugiri.
Using his own phone, murderers of Kazungu called his family and directed them the incomplete pitlatrine where they had dumped his body. The family found Kazungu’s body decomposing in the exact pit directed to them by the assailants.
Kazungu’s daughter had on Monday filed a case at Bugiri police station following calls from strangers who used her father’s phone to demand for Shs 20m ransom.
The daughter, according to Busoga East Regional Police Spokesperson, Diana Nandawula, told the police that Kazungu had gone missing since around 11:00am of Saturday last week.
Preliminary investigations indicate that the deceased was on Saturday last seen with a group of casual laborers on his farm in Nandelema village, Kapyanga sub county, Bugiri district.
“And the casual laburer have also not been seen since then. We suspect they could be knowing something in relation to his murder,” said Nadawula.
Mulondo would later be found with the deceased’s car key. On checking his phone, it was found that he made too many phone calls to Musa Waiswa the day Kazungu disappeared.
Police say investigations have just commeneced and a lot is yet to unearthed.
As said in our earlier report, the list of suspects being hunted over this natter is long.
